This volume provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of the routine and special
toxicologic assessments performed on pharmaceutical agents, chemicals, pesticides and
consumer products. Toxicity testing procedures will be described emphasizing experimental design considerations (dose and species selection, toxicokinetic criteria) as well as regulatory guidelines and impacts of global
harmonization efforts. The volume also provides insights into the risk assessment process in terms of evaluating and interpreting toxicity data relative to human safety.
