Skin Irritation Test — OECD 439

LifeNet Health LifeSciences · Kalamazoo, MI

Conducted using three MatTek EpiDerm™ reconstructed human epidermis tissues. The report identifies the study as non-GLP and states that it was not subject to periodic quality-assurance inspections and its draft was not reviewed by LifeNet Health Quality Assurance. The report's narrative and table contain conflicting tissue-viability values; written reconciliation is required before a quantitative public claim.
