Abstract:Recently, interest in alternative toxicity testing methods to reduce the number of animals used in toxicity evaluations has increased. A more accurate approach is required for human risk assessments, which currently uses animal toxicity data to determine point of departure (POD) values and applies uncertainty factors. Therefore, in this study, we propose an approach for an inhalation toxicity risk assessment using in silico and in vitro methods. Human primary alveolar epithelial cells were treated with aerosol… Show more
