Due to increasing concern regarding UV filters` toxicity on reef-building corals, Helioscience, a suncare specialist testing lab, proposes a suitable methodology for the cosmetic field.
On top of a bleaching assessment, we measure the impact of any cosmetic ingredient or formula on the growth rate of different coral species to conclude more finely on toxicity.
The combination of our expertise in cosmetology, marine biology and ecotoxicology allows us to offer a set of robust acute and chronic toxicity tests on relevant coral species at affordable prices and without any coral destruction.
