Exploring the Diverse Dimensions of In Vitro Testing
Exploring the Diverse Dimensions of In Vitro Testing
In the development of cosmetic products, in vitro testing plays a pivotal role in assessing safety and efficacy — a key stage not to be overlooked.
How about considering:
- Generating a comprehensive dossier ensuring the safety of your ingredient/product, adhering to OECD guidelines and upholding Good Laboratory Practices?
- Delving deeper into the proof-of-concept and mechanism of action of your active ingredient and cosmetic product for a more comprehensive understanding?
- Enhancing your test strategies with cost-effective plans by complementing in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo tests?
