BioScience Lab Blog Regulatory Acceptance of Three-Dimensional Tissue Constructs for Testing of Eye Irritation

An in vitro method for assessment of Ocular Irritation potential of chemicals has been recently accepted by the regulatory authorities as an alternative to in vivo Draize rabbit eye irritation test. This alternative method utilizes reconstructed human cornea-like epithelium which closely mimics the histological, morphological, biochemical and physiological properties of the human corneal epithelium. The EpiOcular [...]
