An International Perspective on the Tools and Concepts for Effluent Toxicity Assessments in the Context of Animal Alternatives: Reduction in Vertebrate Use

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2018

Norberg‐King TJ, Embry MR, Belanger SE, Braunbeck T, Butler JD, ...

HESI's Animal Alternatives in ERA Committee published tools and concepts for effluent toxicity assessment in an issue of SETAC's Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry. The publication discusses a suite of strategies that can be used in a weight of evidence approach to reduce reliance on in vivo fish tests as part of an ...

An examination of historical control histopathology metadata from 51 Amphibian Metamorphosis Assays

Critical Reviews in Toxicology, 2022

Wolf JC, Bejarano AC, Fort DJ and Wheeler JR

The Amphibian Metamorphosis Assay (AMA) is used to identify substances that potentially interfere with the normal function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis. The current investigation reviewed 51 AMA experiments conducted at 7 different laboratories in Europe and North America. Diagnostic approaches to ...

An evaluation of the utility of LVdP/dt40, QA interval, LVdP/dtmin and Tau as indicators of drug-induced changes in contractility and lusitropy in dogs

Journal of Pharmacological and Toxicological Methods, 2017

Michael K. Pugsley, Brian Guth, AlanY. Chiang, ...
  • HESI - Health and Environmental Sciences Institute

The importance of drug-induced effects on the inotropic state of the heart is well known. Unlike hemodynamic and cardiac electrophysiological methods, which have been routinely used in drug safety testing for years, the non-clinical assessment of drug effects on myocardial contractility is used less frequently with ...
