Book Synopsis OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals, Section 4 Test No. 498: In vitro Phototoxicity - Reconstructed Human Epidermis Phototoxicity test method by : OECD
Book excerpt: Skin phototoxicity (photoirritation) is defined as an acute toxic response elicited by topically or systemically administered photoreactive chemicals after the exposure of the skin to environmental light. The in vitro reconstructed human epidermis phototoxicity test (RhE PT) is used to identify the phototoxic potential of a test chemical after topical application in reconstructed human epidermis (RhE) tissues in the presence and absence of simulated sunlight.
