Databases

The database summarizes the results from aquatic acute toxicity tests conducted by the USGS CERC  located in Columbia, Missouri.

The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) is a publicly available research resource that curates scientific data describing relationships between chemicals, genes, and human diseases. A primary goal of CTD is to advance the understanding of the effects of environmental chemicals on human health.

Alternatives to Animal Testing


Non-animal Methods for Toxicity Testing

EURL ECVAM is an integral part of the Joint Research Centre (JRC), the science and knowledge service of the European Commission and is located at the JRC site in Ispra, Italy. 

The Johns Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing (CAAT), founded in 1981, is part of the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health, with a European branch (CAAT-Europe) located at the University of Kostanz, Germany. CAAT is promoting humane science by supporting the creation, development, validation, and use of alternatives to animals in research, product safety testing, and education.
