He/she investigates whether the deceased died because of poisoning and can also look into other small forensic things that may pop up during investigation. A good TV example would be Abby Sciuto from NCIS.
Some are as follows:
* Conducting chemical research for military and medical uses, such as protecting people from radiation, chemicals and biological agents * Conducting experiments in chemical synthesis, structure and interactions * Establishing strength and durability standards for materials used to build aircraft, ships and other equipment * Studying bacteria and parasites to determine how they invade and affect humans and animals * Studying ways of protecting people through immunization from disease * Studying the effects of aerospace flight, temperature and movement on human physiology * Studying food storage and handling methods
Four to eight years of college would be required to be a forensic toxicologist.
A toxicologist in the United States earns between $55,000 and $81,000 per year. The average annual salary in the United States is $71,000.
A forensic toxicologist has to examine the dead victim's body for body fluids to check if any drugs or poisons were either present or absent in the body. This helps the toxicologist to know if the victim died of a drug overdose or died from some type of poisoning. (for example, food poisoning.) Hope this helps. =]
