BayBiotech.NET OECD includes member countries throughout North America, Europe and Asia and has developed guidelines very similar to FDA GLP regulations. OECD regulations are applicable to nonclinical safety studies for pharmaceutical products, animal drugs and food additives, but unlike the FDA GLPs, the OECD regulations are also applicable to studies to evaluate the safety of pesticides and industrial chemicals.
