In recent years, the need to develop acceptable alternatives to conventional animal testing for neurotoxicity and developmental neurotoxicity has been increasingly recognized, and much effort is being directed toward the development of alternative models, utilizing mostly mammal…
Provides new concepts and directions for in vitro assessment of neurotoxicity; functional assays for evaluation of neruotoxicity; interactions of neurons and glia in neurotoxicity; review of endogenous neurotoxic proteins; complementary in vivo/in vitro strategies in neurotoxico…
Neurotoxicity assessment with in vitro systems offers not only a means to better understand mechanisms of action of toxicants and decrease reliance on laboratory animals, but also provides a basis for reliable, high throughput screening of new and untested chemicals. In In Vitro…
First Published in 1994, Introduction to In Vitro Cytotoxicology examines in vitro cytotoxicology, which offers new methodologies to toxicity testing. This important new discipline of modern toxicology is gaining increased acceptance as a viable alternative to traditional testin…
