Both EpiDerm™ and EpiOcular™ commercially available in vitro models for assessing the skin and eye irritation potential, respectively, of chemicals. The EpiDerm and EpiOcular tissue models are organotypic three-dimensional human skin and corneal analogues derived from human epidermal keratinocytes. Both... Read More

The EpiOcular™ tissue model (OCL-200) is an organotypic model of the human corneal epithelium (HCE) cultured from normal human keratinocytes using serum free medium. Paraffin embedded, H&E stained histological cross sections show the structure of EpiOcular closely parallels that of... Read More

The EpiOcular™ tissue model (OCL-200) is an organotypic model of the human corneal epithelium (HCE) cultured from normal human keratinocytes using serum free medium. Paraffin embedded, H&E stained histological cross-sections show the structure of EpiOcular closely parallels that of the... Read More

Cosmetic ingredients were tested to determine the ability of the EpiOcular™ tissue model to predict eye irritation potential. In vitro results were compared with historical Draize eye irritation records. Forty-three samples, consisting of 40 cosmetic raw ingredients of different type... Read More

The EpiOcular™ tissue model (OCL-200) is an organotypic model of the human corneal epithelium (HCE) cultured from normal human keratinocytes using serum-free medium. Haematoxylin and Eosin stained histological sections show the structure of EpiOcular to closely parallel that of the... Read More
