Predictive Assays: Animal and Man, and In Vitro and In Vivo

  • Chapter
Textbook of Contact Dermatitis
  • 98 Accesses

Abstract

Assuming that data from predictive tests are interpreted prudently by dermatotoxicologists with extensive training in quantitative structure-activity relationships, animal and human predictive assays combined with broad clinical experience should aid rational risk-benefit decision making.
