OECD 492B allows the identification “not requiring classification” (No Cat), “requiring classification for eye irritation” (Cat 2) and “requiring classification for serious eye damage” (Cat 1) according to GHS in one study.

That means the new SkinEthic™ Human Corneal Epithelium (HCE) Time-to-Toxicity (TTT) test covers both endpoints (eye irritation and corrosion) which formerly only could be evaluated by a combination of BCOP (OECD 437) and EpiOcular (OECD 492) test.

The new SkinEthic™ Human Corneal Epithelium (HCE) Time-to-Toxicity (TTT) test acc. to OECD 492B covers both endpoints, eye irritation and corrosion, which formerly only could be evaluated by a combination of BCOP (OECD 437) and EpiOcular (OECD 492) test.

This in vitro procedure allows the identification of “not requiring classification” (No Cat), “eye irritation classification” (Cat 2) and “serious eye damage classification” (Cat 1) according to GHS ocular hazard categories.

It is applicable to substances and mixtures, to solids, liquids, semi-solids and waxes.

Die Stefan-Morsch-Stiftung hat es sich zum Ziel gemacht, Blutkrebspatienten und deren Angehörigen zur Seite zu stehen. Sie führen nicht nur eine Stammzellspenderdatei und suchen nach passenden Stammzellspendern, sondern helfen bei der Vermittlung von Kliniken, beraten Patienten und  vergibt im Notfall die sogar finanzielle Hilfen. Die gemeinnützige Stiftung fördert Forschungsvorhaben und den Aufbau von Transplantationskliniken.

Einer unserer Mitarbeiter, Leo Engel, hat sich als Spender registrieren lassen und kürzlich seine Stammzellen gespendet. Dieses außergewöhnliche Engagement von Leo und die großartige Arbeit der Stiftung möchten wir unterstützen, indem wir die Kosten für den Verdienstausfall bei dieser Aktion spenden.

Wir sollten alle ernsthaft darüber nachdenken, uns registrieren zu lassen.

The Stefan Morsch Foundation is supporting blood cancer patients and their relatives. They not only keep a stem cell donor file and search for suitable stem cell donors, but also help to find clinics, advise patients and even provide financial help in an emergency. The non-profit foundation supports research projects and the development of transplant clinics.

One of our employees, Leo Engel, registered as a donor and recently donated his stem cells. We would like to support Leo's extraordinary commitment and the foundation's great work by donating the costs of the loss of earnings during this procedure.

We should all seriously consider registering.

Merry Christmas and Peace & Health for the New Year 2024!
