Journal Title：Toxicology

Toxicology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes only the highest quality original scientific research and critical reviews describing hypothesis-based investigations into mechanisms of toxicity associated with exposures to xenobiotic chemicals, particularly as it relates to human health. In this respect "mechanisms" is defined on both the macro (e.g. physiological, biological, kinetic, species, sex, etc.) and molecular (genomic, transcriptomic, metabolic, etc.) scale. Emphasis is placed on findings that identify novel hazards and that can be extrapolated to exposures and mechanisms that are relevant to estimating human risk. Toxicology also publishes brief communications, personal commentaries and opinion articles, as well as concise expert reviews on contemporary topics. All research and review articles published in Toxicology are subject to rigorous peer review. Authors are asked to contact the Editor-in-Chief prior to submitting review articles or commentaries for consideration for publication in Toxicology.

《毒理學(xué)》是一本國(guó)際性的同行評(píng)審期刊，只發(fā)表最高質(zhì)量的原創(chuàng)科學(xué)研究和評(píng)論，描述基于假設(shè)的對(duì)外來(lái)化合物毒性機(jī)制的研究，特別是與人類健康相關(guān)的毒性機(jī)制。在這方面，“機(jī)制”既有宏觀定義（例如生理、生物、動(dòng)力學(xué)、物種、性別等），也有分子定義（基因組、轉(zhuǎn)錄組、代謝等）。重點(diǎn)放在發(fā)現(xiàn)新的危害并可推斷出與評(píng)估人類風(fēng)險(xiǎn)相關(guān)的暴露和機(jī)制的發(fā)現(xiàn)上。《毒理學(xué)》還發(fā)表簡(jiǎn)短的通訊、個(gè)人評(píng)論和觀點(diǎn)文章，以及關(guān)于當(dāng)代主題的簡(jiǎn)明專家評(píng)論。《毒理學(xué)》上發(fā)表的所有研究和評(píng)論文章都經(jīng)過(guò)嚴(yán)格的同行評(píng)審。作者在提交評(píng)論文章或評(píng)論以供《毒理學(xué)》發(fā)表之前，必須聯(lián)系主編。

Toxicology創(chuàng)刊于1973年，由Elsevier Ireland Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋醫(yī)學(xué) - 毒理學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，此刊是中等級(jí)別的SCI期刊，所以過(guò)審相對(duì)來(lái)講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯(cuò)，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 約1.0個(gè)月 約4.2周，影響因子指數(shù)4.8，該期刊近期沒(méi)有被列入國(guó)際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
