Abstract:The identification of the hazard of chemicals to man has relied on the use of several animal models. However, the availability of various cell toxicity models as alternatives to the use of animals has stimulated attempts to evaluate in vitro data for use in the prediction of human toxicity. The cell toxicity models developed previously are capable of indicating a variety of endpoints susceptible to the activity of various chemical substances. The in vitro data derived so far from testing a variety of types o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
