A comprehensive model for chemical bioavailability and toxicity of organic chemicals based on first principles

Here, we present a novel model to predict the toxicity and bioavailability of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as model compounds based on a first principles approach targeting basic electronic characteristics. The predictive model is based on an initio density functional theory. The model suggest...
