Nice Physics Forums replies to toxicologically significant properties:

mg/kg - how relevant?: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=462694

protein folding/computational toxicology: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=466253

Predicting toxicity based on chemical structure (this is a VERY hot field for research right now):

http://potency.berkeley.edu/pdfs/structure_tox_on_web.pdf

http://books.google.com/books?id=-C...LilASt08XNBw&cd=4#v=onepage&q=organic&f=false => A comprehensive guide to the hazardous properties of chemical substances

http://www.citeulike.org/user/InquilineKea/article/8980563 => Toward molecular design for hazard reduction—fundamental relationships between chemical properties and toxicity - this is a really recent (and readable) paper that shows a way to classify a chemical's potential toxicity based on its chemical structure. Summary at http://www.sciencenews.org/view/feature/id/70925/title/Better_by_Design

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QSAR => QSAR model

http://www.jstor.org/stable/3433032 => very early system of classifying chemicals toxic to rodents

Case studies of particular toxins:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochratoxin
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrodotoxin => very important for neurophysiology research

More specific resources:
(I have many resources about amphetamine toxicity in particular, but I won't list them here for now)

http://www.longecity.org/forum/topic/47231-amphetamine-neurotoxicity-reductionprevention/ => very interesting discussion about research papers on amphetamine toxicity in particular (just be leery about the posts that advocate a particular consumption pathway).
