Global market for in vitro toxicity testing to reach nearly $9.9 billion by 2017

Classical toxicology testing programs are designed to generate definitive data concerning the adverse effects of a substance on human and animal health or the environment. Over the past 20 years, animal welfare and scientific activities have spurred the development of alternative testing methods. Stringent government regulation, improved access to health care, as well as ongoing research, development and scale-up of in vitro and in silico methods will shape significant near-term growth in this market
