Video: The 3T3 Neutral Red Uptake Phototoxicity Test
October 31, 2018Oct 31, 2018 This training video explores a cell-based method for assessing Phototoxicity — the potential for chemicals to cause damage after exposure to light. The method is widely used around the world across many industries, including the cosmetics and pharmaceutical sectors. Disclaimer: Please note that the procedures shown in this video were for demonstration purposes only and that all assay procedures, except the UV A/dark exposure, should be performed in a biological safety cabinet using aseptic techniques. Due to video production reasons,...

Webinar: How GLPs Enhance the Quality of Regulated and Non-Regulated Toxicology
October 18, 2016Oct 18, 2016 This one-hour webinar, led by IIVS Director of Quality and Compliance, introduces some of the concepts of Good Laboratory Practices (GLPs) designed to promote study and data integrity within an in vitro toxicology framework. Applying these concepts within your own laboratory should aid in production of robust, repeatable studies. View Slides...
Webinar: Regulatory Initiatives for New Approaches to Traditional Toxicity Testing
July 1, 2016Jul 1, 2016 This one-hour webinar features presentations by Dr. Jennifer McLain, Deputy Director, Office of Pesticide Programs, Antimicrobial Division and IIVS CEO Dr. Rodger Curren. Dr. McLain discusses the EPA OPP's plans to reduce the use of animal testing in acute toxicity testing and provides suggestions on how stakeholders and EPA can cooperate to advance animal reduction goals. Dr. Curren then talks about IIVS' activities in developing the current non-animal strategy for eye irritation, and recent investigations into in vitro...
