Drug Testing in vitro

Breakthroughs and Trends in Cell Culture Technology

Herausgegeben: Marx, Uwe; Sandig, Volker

Beschreibung

Here, expert scientists from industry and academia share their knowledge on the assembly of functional human tissues in vitro and how to design drug screenings predictive of human exposure. In so doing, they combine the latest technological developments with strategic outlooks, such as novel cell and tissue systems for drug screening and testing, as well as emerging in vitro culture technologies. Equally importantly, the book does not shy away from regulatory acceptance and ethical issues.
