are many alternatives that exist to the use of live animals in research and most non-animal testing methods are more reliable and less expensive. Some of those alternatives are‚ “synthetic skin” called Corrositex‚ computer modeling‚ improved statistical design‚ and the Murine Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA). “Another resource that exists to prove the viability and relevance of using non-animal testing methods is Fund for the Replacement of Animals in Medical Experiments (FRAME).” FRAME is located
