Reducing, Refining and Replacing the Use of Animals in Toxicity Testing

Ebook (PDF Format)

Toxicity testing is used to assess the safety or hazards presented by substances such as industrial chemicals, consumer products, and pharmaceuticals. At present, many methods involve laboratory animals. Alternative procedures, some involving human cell-based technologies, are now being developed which reduce, refine, or replace animal usage and minimize the pain and distress caused. These new tests must protect public health and the environment at least as well as currently accepted methods. This book describes the ever-expanding toolbox of methods available to assess toxicity. Such techniques often result from our growing understanding of t… Mehr
