Common methods of testing products on animals include experiments involving chronic toxicity, acute toxicity, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity and teratogenicity. These tests can be conducted in laboratories or according to Good Laboratory Practices at non-clinical studies facilities. A number of countries also require animal testing for cosmetics before they are released onto the market. Additionally, animal-free alternatives for product testing are becoming more available, such as human-in-vitro techniques and computer modeling.
