In-Vitro Testing Laboratory

Scientists in our In-Vitro testing labs are well trained on ASTM, AATCC, AOAC, CLSI and EN standard methods. The efficacy testing services of this laboratory include MIC/MBC, biofilm prevention and removal, time-kill kinetics, clean room disinfectant validation, zone of inhibition and custom efficacy studies for disinfectants, antimicrobials and other products requiring EPA registrations and FDA 510(k) submissions. Studies in our in-vitro lab can also be designed and executed to differentiate existing products within the market and support unique label claims.

BioScience provides a wide scope of in-vitro test evaluation possibilities from one to two microorganism screening evaluations to evaluations using more than 1,500 ATCC strains and clinical isolates. 

Our In-Vitro Laboratory uses tissue models prepared by the company leading the development of alternatives to animal testing methods to perform safety testing on cosmetics, surfacant-based products, pharmaceuticals and chemicals as well as products for personal care, hair care, and household cleaning . These tests include Ocular Irritation, Skin Irritation, Dermal Corrosion, Oral Irritation and Cytotoxicity.
