Acute Toxicology Testing Perspectives and Horizons

Acute toxicology testing constitutes the first line of defense against potentially dangerous chemicals. This book provides a detailed presentation of protocols for each of the common designs, reviews their development and objectives, discusses the types of data they generate, and examines the current status of alternative test designs and models. For each test, applicable U.S. and international guidelines are also presented, and the formulation and selection of vehicles, dosages, and test animals are addressed.Gad, Shayne C. is the author of 'Acute Toxicology Testing Perspectives and Horizons' with ISBN 9780936923062 and ISBN 0936923067.
