Tests including animal tests take place all over theworld where there is a necessity to understand and overcome a disease process and to protect both man and animals from further morbidity , mortality and spread of the disease.

Just stating one example , perhaps of thousands, there are virus laboratories in many parts of the world now examining and tracing the path of the bird flu virus , deadly and fatal to both man and birds.

Due to the prevalence of NGO's dedicated to prevent animal testing , these selected laboratories do not advertise their work but plod on quietly to achieve their desired result/s...to understand , prevent and find a cure for the disease in both man and animal.

As older diseases like rabies, tuberculosis and many others have been understood to a large extent , new diseases emerge like Aids, SARS, bird flu and numerous others. Millions die yearly due to these diseases...some still succumb to rabies and the number of those with TB seem to be increasing with cross country travel.

What is dermatological testing?

Dermatological testing is animal testing. Many brands now are funding into alternative ways of testing products safely, without the harm of animals. Most animals used are rodents or rabbits. -------------------------------------------------------------If the product has the words 'Dermatologically Tested' on the packaging it has been tested on human skin. This however does not necessarily mean the product (or it's ingredients) are automatically 'bunny friendly'.Your best bet is to look for products that clearly state on the packaging that the company do not test on animals or commission animal tests from third parties. PETA have a really handy guide to products that aren't tested on animals. You can also email companies about their testing policies if you're unsure (I've done it in the past) and the ones who have nothing to hide with regard to their testing policies will be happy to give you all the info you need.Incidentally, the EU ban on using animals to test cosmetics and their ingredients came in onto force on March 11th this year (2009), so basically any cosmetics you buy that are manufactured within the EU are 'bunny friendly'. It also means that no product tested outside the EU may be sold within the Union.

Can you use not tested on animals products on animals?

It will depend on the individual product. The two statements you are referencing are "Not tested on animals" and "For animal use". The phrase "not tested on animals" means the product was not tested for human safety on animals - it is a humane statement, not a statement of toxicity. The phrase "for animal use" means the product is intended for use on animals, but it may or may not have been tested on animals prior to marketing.
