Introduction

Poultry toxicology addresses the effects, detection, assessment, and management of potentially harmful chemical or biological agents relevant to poultry production and food safety. Research in this area contributes to evidence-based approaches for protecting animal health and supporting the safety and quality of food systems. Shanmugasundaram’s listed specialization places her work within this interdisciplinary scientific context.

Research Profile

The supplied bibliometric profile records 90 documents, 2,480 citations, and an h-index of 30. Together, these measures indicate a substantial body of indexed scholarly output and citation activity. The researcher is affiliated with USDA ARS in the United States, providing an institutional context for agricultural and food-related research. [1]

Research Contributions

  • Research specialization in poultry toxicology and related agricultural science.
  • Contribution to a documented body of peer-reviewed scholarly literature.
  • Research activity relevant to poultry health, toxicological assessment, and food safety.
  • A measurable citation record supporting assessment of research visibility.

Publications

The supplied profile reports 90 documents associated with the researcher. Individual publication titles, journal details, publication years, and article-level DOI identifiers were not provided in the source information. Accordingly, this article does not assign unverified publication titles or DOI numbers to the researcher. The Scopus author identifier provides a route for reviewing the indexed scholarly record. [1]

Research Impact

With 2,480 reported citations and an h-index of 30, the profile reflects sustained citation activity across the documented publication record. Bibliometric measures should be interpreted alongside research quality, methodological contribution, collaboration, societal relevance, and field-specific publication practices. [1]

Award Suitability

The reported specialization in poultry toxicology, combined with the documented publication and citation record, provides a reasonable academic basis for consideration under an Innovative Research Award. The assessment emphasizes verifiable scholarly indicators and subject relevance rather than unsupported claims of distinction. Final award decisions should be based on the applicable evaluation criteria and supporting evidence submitted by the nominee.

Conclusion

Revathi Shanmugasundaram’s profile represents an established research record in poultry toxicology within USDA ARS. The reported 90 documents, 2,480 citations, and h-index of 30 provide measurable indicators of scholarly activity and influence. Her specialization is relevant to contemporary agricultural, toxicological, and food-safety research, supporting consideration for recognition through the Innovative Research Award.
