Evidence is presented to demonstrate that the rat is a sensitive rodent species for developmental immunotoxicity testing of chemicals.
The Rat as a Model in Developmental Immunotoxicology
Human and Experimental Toxicology, 2002
Open access, peer-reviewed publications ensure that knowledge is a public good. HESI believes that accessible research is critical for equitable engagement, diverse collaboration, and increased interdisciplinary conversation. We strive to achieve open access on all publications, and more than 200 publications from HESI programs have been published in the last decade.

Evidence is presented to demonstrate that the rat is a sensitive rodent species for developmental immunotoxicity testing of chemicals.
Toxicology Letters, 1998
This project was undertaken by the International Life Sciences Institute's Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (ILSI-HESI) to develop an improved understanding of the extent to which various types of human toxicities (HTs) manifested during clinical trials could be predicted from standard toxicology studies.

There are many limitations to analyse the developing immune system in humans, thus there is need for experimental animal models to study the environmental influences during the ontogeny of the immune system.
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2022
This article highlights the key aspects of a new tiered approach to assess the ecological risks of unknown or variable composition, complex reaction products, and biological materials (UVCBs).

Macaques are well suited for preclinical testing of biopharmaceutics due to reproductive and developmental similarities with humans.
Human and Experimental Toxicology, 2002
The laboratory mouse has been the most extensively used model system for demonstrating postnatal immune deficits following perinatal immunotoxicant exposure.
