Dermal Toxicity Assessment Using In Vitro Methods: Case Study and Best Practice Guidances

When:  May 28, 2026 from 09:30 AM to 10:45 AM (ET)
Hosted by the SOT Dermal Toxicology & In Vitro and Alternative Methods Specialty Sections
This webinar will take us through the newly published paper from Jai Research Foundation (JRF) Global describing the testing of a plant-derived extract mixture to determine skin irritation, corrosion, and sensitization using in vitro test methods with classification using test guidelines and computational models. This will be followed by a presentation on the best practice guidance that has been developed by International Collaboration on Cosmetics Safety (ICCS) and their members to determine skin sensitization potential using data derived from in vitro, in chemico, and computational models. This webinar is intended to provide information to anyone involved in the testing or submission of dermal data for risk assessment across industrial sectors without the use of animals.
