[The Importance of Protocol Design and Data Reporting to Research on Endocrine Disruption]: Response

Year: 1998

Type: article

Abstract: our experimentation could eventually be used to discredit our findings, should they happen not to agree with the original observations.It seems important that all experiments in the rapidly expanding area of endocrine disruption toxicology should be carefully designed and fully reported.The use of con- current positive and negative control groups also seems to be prudent.These needs are independent of who conducts or sponsors studies.Good science is good science.Finally, it should be noted that the only formal retrac- tion of endocrine disruption data currently encountered derived from an academic labo- ratory (15), a salutary counterbalance to the assertions that stimulated this letter (1-3).
