The Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology is an international journal that contains original research papers rapid communications mini-reviews and book reviews all focusing on the molecular mechanisms of action and detoxication of exogenous and endogenous chemicals and toxic agents. The scope includes effects on the organism at all stages of development on organ systems tissues and cells as well as on enzymes receptors hormones and genes. The biochemical and molecular aspects of uptake transport storage excretion lactivation and detoxication of drugs agricultural industrial and environmental chemicals natural products and food additives are all subjects suitable for publication. Of particular interest are aspects of molecular biology related to biochemical toxicology. These include studies of the expression of genes related to detoxication and activation enzymes toxicants with modes of action involving effects on nucleic acids gene expression and protein synthesis and the toxicity of products derived from biotechnology. Given the rapid development of the field of toxicology during the last few decades and the fundamental importance of biochemical mechanisms in all aspects of toxicology the Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology is of interest not only to active investigators in the field but to many other scientists. These include other biochemists molecular biologists and toxicologists involved in industrial and contract research and testing laboratories and those involved in legal and regulatory work related to toxic chemicals. The Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology is published bimonthly with one volume of 6 issues per calendar year.

《生物化學和分子毒理學雜志》是一本國際性期刊，包含原始研究論文、快速通訊、小評論和書評，所有這些都集中在外生和內源性化學物質以及有毒物質的分子作用機制和解毒作用上。這一范圍包括在器官系統(tǒng)、組織和細胞發(fā)育的各個階段對機體的影響，以及對酶受體、激素和基因的影響。藥物、農業(yè)、工業(yè)和環(huán)境化學品、天然產品和食品添加劑的吸收、運輸、儲存、排泄、發(fā)酵和解毒的生化和分子方面均適合發(fā)表。特別感興趣的是與生化毒理學有關的分子生物學方面。這些研究包括與解毒和活化酶有關的基因表達和毒性因子的研究，其作用方式涉及對核酸基因表達和蛋白質合成的影響以及生物技術產品的毒性。鑒于毒理學領域在過去幾十年中的快速發(fā)展以及生物化學機制在毒理學各個方面的基本重要性，《生物化學和分子毒理學雜志》不僅對該領域的活躍研究者感興趣，而且對許多其他科學家也感興趣。其中包括其他生物化學家、分子生物學家、從事工業(yè)和合同研究和測試實驗室的毒理學家，以及從事與有毒化學品有關的法律和監(jiān)管工作的人。《生化與分子毒理學雜志》每兩個月出版一期，每日歷年出版6期。
