One real benefit of these systems, particularly of the organotypic in vitro preparations, is that the manifestation of toxicity can be extrapolated immediately to the manifestation in vivo; for example, corneal damage in the enucleated eye corresponds directly to potential corneal damage in vivo (although it must be recognized that these assays do not address the key parameter of recovery), or a neural tube defect in whole-embryo culture is expected to predict the potential for a limb defect in vivo.
