Book excerpt: The results of an independent peer review evaluation of the validation status of the Murine Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA), a new test method proposed for assessing the allergic contact dermatitis potential of chemicals. The review was one of the critical components in the process that culminates in achieving regulatory acceptance & implementation of scientifically validated toxicological testing methods. These methods are generally more predictive of adverse human health effects than current methods, & they may be alternative methods that provide for improved animal well-being & that reduce or eliminate the need for animals.
