COSMETICS/PERSONAL CARE

Radiant Research is committed towards cruelty free testing for cosmetics and we have established in vitro cell based testing facility to provide non animal testing services. At Radiant Research, we maintain large cell repository with more than 60 different cell lines and optimized range of screening tests to offer End to End research services for various cosmetic and personal care products.

At Radiant Research, we have established three dimensional human skin equivalent models such as EpiDerm, EpiSkin, SkinEthic and Start-M to evaluate the efficacy, safety and permeation/absorption of cosmetic ingredients and cosmetics.
