This month, Buneido Publishing released the new textbook "Pharmacology and Toxicology Experiments, 4th Edition," which aligns with the Veterinary Education Model Core Curriculum.

This textbook was collaboratively authored by pharmacology and toxicology faculty from veterinary schools across Japan, including Associate Professor Kamata and Lecturer Takeda from our lab, who contributed to the following sections:

• VIII-16: Skin Toxicity Tests
• IX-18: Micronucleus Tests Using Mice
• IX-19: Chromosomal Aberration Tests Using Mammalian Cultured Cells
• X-20: Teratogenicity Tests Using Chicken Embryos

Our lab also promotes alternative methods to animal testing, adding new alternative experimental techniques using keratinocyte cultured cells for the skin toxicity tests, alongside the established chromosomal aberration tests using mammalian cultured cells.
