It encompasses all areas of dermal toxicity, including skin irritation, skin corrosion, skin sensitization, UV-induced effects, and skin genotoxicity. An individual chapter is devoted to each test method, with coverage of the scientific basis, validation status and regulatory acceptance, applications and limitations, available protocols, and potential role within testing strategies. In addition, perspectives from the test developer are presented, for example regarding critical steps in the protocol, possible adaptations, and challenges and opportunities. The closing section addresses exploratory areas that may be of relevance for the future of dermal toxicity safety testing, including the validation and regulatory acceptance of integrated testing strategies, the use of alternative methods for infections and inflammatory diseases, novel complex skin models, and high-throughput screening techniques. Dermal toxicity is an area in which alternatives to the use of animal testing have already gained scientific, industrial, and regulatory acceptance. Practitioners and researchers alike will find Alternatives for Dermal Toxicity Testing to be an ideal source of reliable, up-to-date information on all aspects of the available test methods and likely future directions. 606 $aDermatology 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aAnimal models in research 606 $aDermatology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H1900X 606 $aPharmacology/Toxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007 606 $aAnimal Models$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25050 615 0$aDermatology. 615 0$aPharmacology. 615 0$aAnimal models in research. 615 14$aDermatology. 615 24$aPharmacology/Toxicology. 615 24$aAnimal Models. 676 $a616.5 702 $aEskes$b Chantra$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $avan Vliet$b Erwin$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMaibach$b Howard I$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254487003321 996 $aAlternatives for Dermal Toxicity Testing$91551254 997 $aUNINA
