Eye irritation

Evaluation

Toxicology, Genetic, In Vitro Alternate, Acute

Eye irritation is defined as the production of changes in the eye following the application of a test substance to the anterior surface of the eye. These changes are fully reversible within 21 days of application (UNECE, Part 3.3, 2015). It is a key toxicological endpoint required to achieve fundamental product safety standards and to guide therapy development. There are various eye irritation test models; one example is OECD 492B. These can be used to screen substances early on in development or during GLP toxicity testing.

About our nonclinical animal research models: We provide the utmost care for our research animals and actively pursue advances in animal welfare. As well as ensuring the highest scientific, ethical and regulatory standards, selection of appropriate animal research models for development research is critical to developing safe and effective treatments, devices and products that protect and save lives. Just as we have ethical committee oversight for human trials, we have ethical committees overseeing all aspects of our global animal care and use programs. All of our core, nonclinical facilities are accredited by AAALAC. Learn more about our commitment to replacing, reusing and refining nonclinical research models.
