Description Alternative Toxicological Methods brings together the recent and relevant contributions of over 125 scientists from government, industry, and academia in North American, the U.K., and Western Europe for meeting the needs for developing and validating replacement, reduction, and refinement alternatives to animal testing. These internationally recognized scientists present what has been accomplished thus far in developing acceptable alternatives to traditional animal toxicological assessment as well as providing potentially new initiatives. This is done in 44 chapters focusing on seven themes.
