Morphological
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-007581
Relating to the form and structure of an organism or any of its parts, without regard to function. Morphological analysis in toxicology involves the macroscopic and microscopic examination of tissues and organs to identify structural changes, such as lesions, tumors, or developmental anomalies. These observations are a standard component of toxicity studies, providing evidence of adverse effects caused by chemical exposure.
