Cíle předmětu
The aim of this subject is to provide students basic knowledge in the area of toxicology. Modern toxicology is an interdisciplinary scientific discipline focused on interactions of xenobiotics with living systems, which lead to their damage or death. The subject incorporates with various disciplines, which are taught in previous years (biology, morphology, physiology and human pathophysiology).
Výstupy z učení
After completing the course the student is able to define the course Toxicology and have knowledge of basic toxicological terms. The student is able to describe in general the dangerous characteristics of substances, the mechanisms of their toxic effect and kinetics. The student has a comprehensive overview of the hazards of toxicologically important inorganic, organic and natural substances and a basic overview of the toxicity of selected pesticides, radionuclides and drugs. He orients himself in related legal regulations and has an overview of methods for testing the hazardous properties of substances.
