EPA updated its list of alternative test methods and strategies, a move that Administrator Lee Zeldin promoted as a step toward eliminating animal testing.
On Tuesday, the agency added more than two dozen guidelines, predictive models and other tools to its list of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for the first time in five years.
The announcement goes hand-in-hand with Zeldin’s revived commitment to the first Trump administration’s goal to end animal testing by 2035.

“By broadening high-quality alternatives and inviting strong new candidates, we can deliver faster, more protective decisions while reducing animal testing,” Zeldin said in a statement.
