There is a need to investigate the mechanistic basis of the human skin irritation response if relevant in vitro test systems for the predictive identification of skin irritation hazards are to be developed. Recent progress in genomics technologies mean that... Read More

Understanding the mechanistic basis of the human skin irritation response is key to the development of relevant in vitro test systems for the predictive identification of skin irritation hazards. Recent progress in the development of proteomic and microarray technologies means... Read More

The goal of this study by researchers at Cosmital SA (Wella AG) and L’Oreal (Life Sciences Research, Centre) was to examine the concordance between human in vivo and in vitro skin irritation classifications of cosmetic products and to evaluate the... Read More

There is substantial interest in delivering the antioxidant benefits of vitamin E (tocopherol) to the skin. Since free tocopherol is inherently unstable, it is usually delivered to the skin in the form of tocopheryl acetate. The premise behind this approach... Read More
