Training platform for methodological approaches to reduce animal experiments
Welcome to 3R SMART! We are an information and training platform that is aimed at both interested lay people and also scientists and technical personnel. The 3Rs stand for the Refinement, Reduction and Replacement of animal experiments.
The project is financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and coordinated and built up by the Foundation Veterinary University of Veterinary Medicine Hanover and the Philipps University of Marburg.
The MoNLightBoNT assay is designed to be used in the long run as an alternative to the mouse lethality test for the activity testing of various products containing Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), such as Botox®.
