- Title
HARMING HUMANS VIA ANIMAL ANALYSIS: A UTILITARIAN CRITIQUE OF REGULA TOR Y REQUIREMENTS AND EMPHASES IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL, COSMETIC, AND INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS INDUSTRIES.

- Abstract
This article argues that where human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are an appropriate substitute, animal testing should be decreased while research on hESCs should be increased. This article puts forth two arguments in support of its thesis. First, it posits that such a change will greatly reduce pain and suffering amongst both humans and non-human animals. Secondly, it discusses the problematic history of animal testing in terms of human welfare to explain that increased hESC research would lead to more accurate information and better therapies in a faster, less expensive manner than traditional methods of animal research.
