Irritation Toxicity Studies

IRT is renowned for research and toxicology of the Irritation Studies. The Skin Irritation testing is to determine if a material or device with which a patient body would have to contact is irritant or not. We at Toxicity testing conduct the skin irritation testing to measures the reaction to single, repeated, or continual exposure on skin from the tested device materials which can be a cause of skin irritation, resulting in mucosal, or ocular irritation.

Prevention is better than the cure. Skin is the most easily effective part of human body in terms of infection.  Skin irritation test is the popular test which is done to ensure safety and analyse the risk assessment of the products and its components on the skin. The skin testing is vital in the countries like India, Africa and Kenya. Toxicity testing in South Africa is done on all and various products. The toxicity testing involves basic testing and advance or specific testing which is specific to the place or region, depending upon the climatic condition there etc. The skin irritation test is the basic requirement needed to be done to ensure the product safety on human body before the introduction of the product to the market. Earlier the skin testing was done by using the product or doing a practical experiment on animals. With science advancement, the approach of toxicity testing has changed, and no more harm or damage is done on animals for doing skin testing of the product. The skin corrosion, skin irritation testing and risk assessment are implemented without using any test methods on animals. The vitro test or novel acute irritation patch tests in human are the popular and in demand skin irritation test at toxicity.  An array of other human test methods has developed and used for the chronic skin irritation and the general skin compatibility of the finished products.  IIRT is a renowned and trusted research Centre for irritation testing and irritation study. The institute is renowned for its toxicity testing services in South Africa, Kenya and India.
