The aim of regulatory reproductive toxicity studies is to reveal any effect of an active substance on mammalian reproduction. External, visceral and skeletal evaluations are performed.
Embryo-fetal development studies are usually performed on a rodent and rabbit, although NHP fetal evaluations can also be performed.Soft tissue is evaluated using the modified Wilson Technique, and a bone and cartilage examination uses a modified Dawson Technique.
These particular studies are available as part of a toxicology study;learn more about standalone fetal pathologial evaluations.
About our nonclinical animal research models: We provide the utmost care for our research animals and actively pursue advances in animal welfare. As well as ensuring the highest scientific, ethical and regulatory standards, selection of appropriate animal research models for development research is critical to developing safe and effective treatments, devices and products that protect and save lives. Just as we have ethical committee oversight for human trials, we have ethical committees overseeing all aspects of our global animal care and use programs. All of our core, nonclinical facilities are accredited by AAALAC.Learn more about our commitment to replacing, reusing and refining nonclinical research models.
