March 1, 2023IIVS is pleased to share that the PMI In Vitro Alternatives Laboratory in Neuchâtel, Switzerland is now GIVIMP certified. Good In Vitro Method Practices (GIVIMP) is an OECD guidance document that provides a framework for quality standards specific to in vitro laboratory operations....
February 23, 2023The Institute for In Vitro Sciences (IIVS) is sponsoring a series of workshops to identify, discuss and develop recommendations for optimal scientific and technical approaches for conducting in vitro assays, to assess potential toxicity within and across tobacco and various next generation nicotine and tobacco products (NGPs), including heated tobacco products (HTPs) and electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). The third workshop (24–26 February 2020) summarised the key challenges and made recommendations concerning appropriate methods of test article generation and cell exposure from...
February 16, 2023This webinar explores the use of Non-Animal Methodologies to derive a Point of Departure (predicted LLNA EC3) which can be used to evaluate the skin sensitization potency as well as downstream use for risk assessment. Presenters include: Dr. Argel Islas-Robles (Study Director and Toxicologist, IIVS) and Dr. Andreas Natsch (Senior Research Fellow, Givaudan)....
