IN VIVO TESTING METHODS FOR ASSESSING THE EFFECTS OF CLEANSING SYSTEMS ON THE SKIN
In the last 15 years, bioengineering and sensory methods have been developed to assess non-visible surfactant effects on the skin. These approaches give more insight on the skin's responses than is obtained from clinical signs of irritation alone. These methods may be used to develop a more complete mechanistic understanding of skin/surfactant interactions, to support claims and guide formulation.This monograph is intended to help the investigator select an appropriate methodology to address various experimental questions, and will focus on the methods used for formulation guidance and claims substantiation.
