SenzaGen speaks at Eurofins Human Safety Seminar, November 29

Dr Andy Forreryd, scientist at SenzaGen, is one of three speakers at the Human Safety Seminar organised by Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing Munich where he will be presenting the GARD® platform for skin and respiratory sensitization. The seminar will be hosted on November 29 at the new laboratory and office building of Eurofins Munich, Robert-Koch-Straße 3a in Planegg near Munich, Germany.

The topics for the seminar are:

  • In vitro Methods to test for Endocrine Disrupting Properties
  • In vitro Skin sensitization – Challenges to Overcome
  • Eye Irritation ex vivo and in vitro methods – Current status
  • GARD® platform, genomic test for skin and respiratory sensitization with potency classification
  • New Developments in Genotoxicity Testing for Chemicals, Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals – in vitro and in vivo Comet Assay

SenzaGen attends the SFT annual meeting, November 27-28

SenzaGen is attending the SFT conference (Société Française de Toxicologie) in Lille, France, on November 27-28. The conference is the French Society of Toxicology’s annual meeting and SenzaGen is present with a poster: GARD® – Genomic Allergen Rapid Detection, In vitro Safety Assessment of Skin and Respiratory Sensitizers using a Genomics Based Platform. Our French distribution partner Eurosafe is also present with a booth where you can get more information about GARD® and about our collaboration with Eurosafe.

SenzaGen hosts open webinars on Respiratory Sensitization on 4 and 5 December

In vitro testing for Respiratory Sensitizers using a genomic biomarker signature and the GARDtechnology platform

The presentations on 4 and 5 December 2018, will give insight into the latest in vitro technology for identifying respiratory sensitizers using human dendritic-like cell lines and genomics.  A thorough explanation of the GARD platform will be covered as well as its versatility and reliability for safety assessment applicable to all industries. Sensitization testing with GARD is based on functional genomics.

The presentation will cover:

  • Development of the genomic-based GARD test platform for skin sensitization hazard, potency classification, and now also respiratory sensitization.
  • Dendritic cells – why they are also relevant for respiratory sensitization.
  • Gene mapping – what genes are in the assay, and how are they relevant for sensitization.
  • How GARD can discriminate between skin and respiratory sensitization and why this is relevant.
  • Update on the development of the SenzaGen R&D pipeline including GARD for materials – testing medical devices, GARD for proteins – classification of protein sensitizers, GARD for mixtures – assessment of complex formulations and Unknown or Variable Composition UVCBs.

Next generation in vitro skin and respiratory sensitization testing using genomics with GARD

The GARD™ platform is a versatile in vitro testing strategy which currently consist of three assays targeting two toxicological endpoints: skin sensitization (GARDskin & GARDpotency) and respiratory sensitization (GARDair). These assays make use of unique genomic biomarker signatures comprising genes involved in pathways known to be immunologically relevant to the sensitization process. Supported by modern technologies for pattern recognition, the large informational content provided by this approach enable for mechanism-of-action based decisions, which becomes evident in a consistently high predictive accuracy
