  • Title: Development of a testing strategy for detecting embryotoxic hazards of chemicals in vitro by using embryonic stem cell models.
    Author: Bremer S, Pellizzer C, Adler S, Paparella M, de Lange J.
    Journal: Altern Lab Anim; 2002 Dec; 30 Suppl 2():107-9. PubMed ID: 12513659.
    Abstract:
    The importance of developing in vitro tests for embryotoxicity is discussed, and ECVAM's work with its collaborators is summarised. Studies are in progress to find new endpoints for use in the scientifically validated embryonic stem (ES) cell test, so that the potential for chemical effects on endodermal, mesodermal and/or ectodermal differentiation can be identified. This involves, inter alia, the use of genetically modified ES cells.
