"BERLIN - The German government on Monday dismissed as unjustifiable any auto emissions testing on monkeys or people.
German daily Stuttgarter Zeitung reported at the weekend that a research organization funded by German carmakers sponsored scientific experiments testing nitrogen dioxide, a gas found in exhaust fumes, on people.
Separately, BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) have condemned emissions experiments involving monkeys."
