With reference to the report entitled Statistics of Scientific Procedures on Living Animals Great Britain 2019, published in July 2020, there were no pyrogenicity tests carried out on animals in Great Britain in 2019. In most cases, pyrogenicity tests can be carried out using a combination of non-animal alternatives.
