bullet Quality standards
leer linie
leer  
leer When assessing research results, high quality standards have to be applied. Methodological failings such as missing data on exposure or the state of the animal or subject, as well as missing control experiments complicate the analysis and interpretation of research results regarding potential health effects on human beings. more...


bullet Analysis of research results
leer linie
leer  
leer Data on quantitative and qualitative analysis of test results have to be as detailed as possible and therefore comprehensible. This includes e.g. information about the number of test animals as well as cell preparations in cell experiments and the statistical method applied. more...
