Toward Sustainable Environmental Quality – Toxicology Sustainability

Dear Colleagues,

Most of the toxicants are in chemical origin, which are originally designed for the beneficial practice that may cause adverse effects in human health as well as in environmental resources by polluting air, water and the soil. The toxicology sustainability is the development and construction of new materials and chemicals which is less harmful to the ecosystem and reducing its exposure and waste. This practice is famous in the name “Green toxicology” to predictive testing strategies and practices that helped to reduce not only the animal testing but also the amount and disposal of chemicals in toxicity testing and increase the toxicity concern of chemicals in its synthesis, use and regulation.  The toxicity tools like in-silico and in-vitro methods are generally giving better vision for mechanisms of toxicity, structural activity relationships (SAR) related problems of the toxicants. Animal testing is an important tool to assess the toxic potential of any chemical that predicts the risk effects and regulation of chemical development by various industrial sectors. The sustainable toxicology used new strategies which can relate the mechanistic information acquired via the in-silico, in-vitro and toxico-genomic methods for human and animal toxicity consequences have been evaluated as alternative methods used in-vivo tests. Here, in this special issue, we invite manuscripts related to toxicology sustainability, sustainable environmental, and other research studies/reviews.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
