We provide you the highest quality efficacy studies to support the claims of your products. A comprehensive range of antimicrobial efficacy testing for many products such as medical devices, textiles, industrial surface disinfectants, cosmetics and healthcare products.
These services are projected to support our clients at all stages of the design, trial and manufacturing process. In this way, you can scientifically demonstrate the effects of your products:
The claims regarding your products shall comply with all the regulatory requirements and shall not mislead the end users. The new regulation pays particular attention to the cosmetic claims.
More in particular images, designations, trademarks that confer to the product fake features or properties shall not be used. The claims on the labels should be demonstrated by appropriate scientific evidences.
Companies are required to test the efficacy of their products. And you…Are you sure about the efficacy of your products?
Tanning Booster: Tanning booster effect is assessed under simulated conditions of use. Subjects are exposed to UV rays using a certified solar simulator. At fixed time points, skin colour is measured through spectrophotometry/colorimetry techniques. Claims Tanning booster Other techniques Individual Typology Angle (ITA) Image analysis Self-assessment (consumer test) Complife Support Line+39 0382 25 504What we…
Slimming: When ultrasound waves penetrate a tissue, reflections occur at different tissue boundaries (i.e. fat-muscle and muscle-bone). This technique allows to measure the fat tissue thickness in single precise points as well as to scan a part of the body to track local fat loss. Claims Slimming effect Remodelling effect Other techniques Macrophotography Circumferences; Bioimpedentiometry…
Skin deep hydration/moisturization Efficacy: Skin deep hydration/moisturization is measured by means of corneometry. The instrument measures the skin water content of the deep skin layers based on the capacitance measurement. Claims Skin deep hydration Skin deep moisturization Other techniques Water holding capacity test Moisture accumulation test Trans-epidermal water loss Digital imaging (MoistureMap) Self-assessment (consumer test)…
Anti wrinkle efficacy is assessed using different techniques: Wrinkle surface, depth, volume, and others skin texture parameters are measured using a real 3D camera. Wrinkle analysis is integrated with the measurement of skin conditions (moisturization, elasticity, etc.) using bioengineering techniques. Instrumental measurements can be associated with experts scoring and dermatological assessment. Claims Anti wrinkle efficacy…
Genotoxicity and Mutagenicity: The evaluation of genotoxicity and mutagenicity represents an important step in the safety assessment of products and is used for their classification and labelling. Our testing services include: Bacterial reverse mutation test (Ames test) – OECD 471 Micronucleus test and Comet assay Complife Support Line+39 0382 25 504Tests & AnalysisEfficacy TestsSafety TestsChemical…
Home Use test under gynaecologist control Home-use test under gynaecologist control is aimed to assess the tolerability of products for the intimate hygiene, under real conditions of use. The product is delivered to the subjects for a daily regular use; at fixed experimental times the gynaecologist evaluates the absence of adverse signs. Claims Tolerance tested…
Hand Immersion Test Panelists enrolled in the Hand Immersion Test soak their hands in 2 different hand/dish washing products, once a day for 30 minutes for 5 consecutive days. Products are tested at usual dilution for hand/dishwashing solution and are randomized between the dominant and non-dominant hands of panelists. Skin reactions (redness and dryness) are…
Repeated Open Application Test (ROAT): ROAT is among the most frequently used tests for finished cosmetic products. The product to be tested is repeatedly applied on a small area of the forearm skin for 15 days. Skin reactions (redness, swelling, vesicles) are assessed by a highly trained assessor (dermatologist). ROAT mimics real-life exposure situations by…
