IRSI is a leader in biophysical instrumental analyses and visual and tactile dermatological assessment, offering quality performance of safety and in-use trials. The reliable results from each of these trial types performed at IRSI may be used to make strategic marketing determinations and to substantiate marketing claims for a vast array of pharmaceuticals and Over-The-Counter treatments, cosmetics, "cosmeceutical" products, and other product types which may come into contact with human skin.
