(PharmaNewsWire.Com, June 08, 2017 ) In-vitro toxicology testing is the scientific analysis of toxic effects produced by chemical substances on cultured mammalian cells or bacteria. Toxicity testing is very essential in drug discovery as identifies the toxic effects of new compound in the early stages of drug discovery. This early detection of toxicity reduces the development cost and time.
Asia-Pacific in-vitro toxicology testing market is expected to reach USD 5.23 billion by 2021 from USD 2.48 billion in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 16.10% for the next five years 2016-2021.
