This News Report presents the screening method with the modular exposure unit, that can also help to reduce the number of experimental animals used. The research shows that in-vitro models are also suitable for future toxicologic investigations of gases and complex gas/particle mixtures as they actually occur in the environment. One advantage of these methods is the usage of human cells and tissues for screening studies.
