Genotoxicity assessment of piperitenone oxide: an in vitro and in silico evaluation [PDF]
Piperitenone oxide, a natural flavouring agent also known as rotundifolone, has been studied for the genotoxicity assessment by an integrated in vitro and in silico experimental approach, including the bacterial reverse mutation assay, the micronucleus ...

The CompTox Chemistry Dashboard: a community data resource for environmental chemistry
Despite an abundance of online databases providing access to chemical data, there is increasing demand for high-quality, structure-curated, open data to meet the various needs of the environmental sciences and computational toxicology communities.

A Survey of Computational Toxicology Approaches [PDF]
Medications are a particular kind of chemicals that are considered essential for toxicity screening in contrast to those substances that contribute to the environment. In the development and production phases, toxicity is still the reason for a great number of candidate failures for new medicines.

Studies in in vivo rodent models have been the accepted approach by regulatory agencies to evaluate potential developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) of chemicals for decades. These studies, however, are inefficient and cannot meet the demand for the thousands

Computational toxicology, friend or foe? [PDF]
Computational approaches offer the attraction of being both fast and cheap to run being able to process thousands of chemical structures in a few minutes. As with all new technology, there is a tendency for these approaches to be hyped up and claims of reliability and performance may be exaggerated. So just how good are these computational methods?

Correlations between experimental and theoretical adiabatic ionization energies for organic compounds and rate constants for atmospheric reactions with hydroxyl radicals [PDF]
Adiabatic ionization energy (AIE) calculations were performed at the AM1, PM3, PM6, PDDG, HF/QZVP, and B3LYP/QZVP levels of theory on 722 atmospherically relevant organic compounds with available experimental rate constants for atmospheric reactions with
