Evaluation of Short-Term Bioassays to Predict Functional Impairment. Development of Hepatic Bioassays in Laboratory Animals, Directory of Institutions/Individuals.
Abstract
MITRE has been requested by the U.S. Army Medical Bioengineering Research and Development Laboratory to identify and evaluate short-term bioassays which have demonstrated ability to evaluate and predict hepatic impairment resulting from toxicant exposures. This directory is a companion to Selected Short-Term Hepatic Toxicity Tests, which describes the available hepatic testing protocols and assesses their suitability for a screening program. This directory catalogues the organizations currently engaged in hepatic bioassay utilization or development, and provide information concerning specific measurements performed, test systems employed, compounds tested, requirements for anesthesia, and the terminal nature of the test.
