Alternatives to animal testing can be used for toxicological research, such as chemical safety and drug effectiveness testing, or other types of biomedical research that examine biological mechanisms of disease.
5 Δεκ 2022 · What are the alternatives to animal testing? The last 30 years have seen a dramatic increase in alternatives to animal testing. Non-animal methods include tissues and mini-organs grown in the laboratory from human cells, organs-on-chips, research conducted using human volunteers and advanced computer simulations.
Due to innovations in science, animal tests are being replaced in areas such as toxicity testing, neuroscience and drug development. But much more needs to be done. Once new non-animal methods have been developed, there are often massive bureaucratic hurdles to implementing and enforcing their use.
Where a new animal test proves necessary, legislation requires that scientifically-sound approaches to the implementation of the 3Rs – reduction, refinement or replacement of animal use – are used.
