内容説明

Examines a range of alternatives to the use of animals in research and testing, evaluating the latest developments in the field, indicating future directions and explaining the regulatory climate that surrounds the technologies presented. Ocular, dermal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular and environmental aspects of testing and research are addressed.
