Cytotoxic studies are essential for assessing the toxicity of new drugs or compounds at the cellular level. These studies analyze the effect of substances on cell viability and function, helping to identify potential damage or adverse effects that could compromise the safety of the medication. Tests are conducted to measure the drug’s ability to induce cell death, alter cell growth, or modify the behavior of cells in culture. These studies are crucial for ensuring that the drug does not cause significant toxicity in human or animal cells, thereby guaranteeing its safety before proceeding to more advanced clinical trials.
