Ma. Shapiro et al., A NOVEL RAPID THROUGHPUT PHOTOTOLERANCE SCREEN IN MICE, Journal of pharmacological and toxicological methods, 36(4), 1996, pp. 185-187
A relatively simple, rapid throughput phototolerance screen in small a
nimals would be very useful in early drug development. It could priori
tize or select potential lead compounds from among a number of analogs
with similar biological activities. This study describes an in vivo m
ouse phototolerance screen established for that purpose. It also repor
ts phototolerance data with standard reference drugs obtained using th
is screen. (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Inc.
