CRC Press In Vitro Toxicology by CRC Press - Medical Research Book

Explore the evolution of toxicological research with In Vitro Toxicology from CRC Press. This volume addresses the significant shift in how scientists identify and understand the mechanisms of agents that can harm humans and other higher organisms. As research moves toward more sophisticated models, this book provides essential context on the rise of non-animal methods. Since the 1960s, in vitro models have become increasingly important due to rising concerns regarding animal welfare, economic factors, and the demand for greater sensitivity in scientific testing. This text demonstrates the wide range of current in vitro models available for researchers today. It serves as a resource for understanding how these models can be used to identify or study most forms of toxicity, offering a deeper look into the mechanisms behind biological harm.
