Toxicity Endpoints & Tests
|
| Last Updated: May 13, 2008 |
| This section describes the major categories and types of toxicity testing currently required by regulatory agencies for many types of chemicals, drugs, pesticides, household products, and other materials.
Each Toxicity Endpoints & Tests section describes the intended purpose of testing for that toxicity endpoint, animal tests used, regulatory requirements, nonanimal alternative methods and their validation status, and emerging technologies. Links are provided for each endpoint to several invited Way Forward commentaries, which are expert opinions on approaches for facilitating progress in developing, validating, and/or using nonanimal methods for that toxicity endpoint.
The Toxicity Endpoints & Tests sections are provided to AltTox users as short overviews of the field to facilitate discussions on related AltTox Forums.
