How Do In Vitro Studies Complement In Vivo Studies?
In vitro studies are often the first step in a multi-tiered approach to evaluating nanomaterials. Positive results in in vitro studies can lead to further testing in in vivo models, such as animal studies, to confirm findings in a more complex biological context. This tiered approach helps ensure that only the most promising and safe nanomaterials advance to clinical trials in humans.
