Undoing Randykitty revision for its promotional character. The Center for Public Integrity has clearly demonstrated that this is not a peer-reviewed journal and previously provided sources were documented (Center for Public Integrity and Dolos list statements). In addition, without Center for Public Integrity article about this journal, the subject of this wikipedia article would not have enough notoriety and media reference to be presented on the encyclopedia.

Critical Reviews in Toxicology is an academic journal that publishes review articles on the mechanisms, responses and assessments of toxins and toxicants. It is published by Taylor and Francis.
The editor is Roger O. McClellan, Albuquerque.[1]
Indexed by ISI Critical Reviews in Toxicology received an impact factor of 5.097 as reported in the 2014 Journal Citation Reports by Thomson Reuters, ranking it seventh out of 87 journals in the category Toxicology.[2]
The journal has been accused of being "broker of junk science" by the Center for Public Integrity.[3] Dozens of internal Monsanto emails that were brought to the public light, due to litigation on behalf of more than 1,000 plaintiffs alleging that Monsanto's herbicide Roundup (glyphosate) caused their non-Hodgkin lymphoma, show that Monsanto employees were directly engaged in managing how research was published in the peer-reviewed Critical Reviews in Toxicology. The correspondence shows the company’s chief of regulatory science, William Heydens, and other Monsanto scientists were heavily involved in organizing, reviewing, and editing drafts submitted by the outside experts from Intertek Group, Plc. At one point, Heydens even vetoed explicit requests by some of the panelists to tone down what one of them wrote was the review’s “inflammatory” criticisms of the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Glyphosate is one of the world's most heavily used crop chemicals.[4]
In October 2018, Taylor & Francis was added to the Dolos list as a predatory publisher for the quality of articles published in Critical Reviews in Toxicology. Indeed, according to the list administrator, the publisher allowed companies, such as Total S.A. and BP, to publish pseudoscientific articles in this journal in order to support the marketing of dangerous products.[5]
