Intertek Clinical Research Services help to ensure the safety and efficacy of your consumer healthcare products and pharmaceuticals through robust clinical testing and laboratory solutions
Clinical evaluation of personal care and healthcare products is critical in a fast moving industry. To meet the challenges of the marketplace, changing trends and ever changing consumer needs, high quality, effective evaluation of your products is essential. Ensuring the safety and efficacy of medicines and medical devices is imperative through clinical evaluation in a highly regulated environment, for cosmetics and personal care products this provides a clear competitive advantage generating substantial product claims.
Our Clinical Research Services team can help you successfully navigate this challenging business climate, bringing our extensive experience and expertise in conducting clinical research in oral care, skin care product dermatology, foot care studies for cosmetics and consumer healthcare and dermatology, dentistry and podiatry for consumer healthcare or over-the-counter, low risk medicine development programs.
Intertek Clinical Research Services is one of the world’s largest consumer healthcare testing organizations, operating from five sites located in the UK. For over 18 years our Clinical Research Services group have been bringing quality and safety to life as a trusted partner for developers and manufacturers of cosmetics and low risk medicines and medical devices.

Our in vitro oral care laboratories provide comprehensive oral care product testing and bioanalysis of clinical samples to support your product development through in vitro assessment of product efficacy and safety.
Using bioinstrumentation, imaging, bespoke design of active delivery models and sampling techniques, we conduct in-depth evaluations of oral malodour assessment, abrasivity, erosion and tissue loss, microhardness, stain removal and whitening, anti-plaque and anti-calculus, and cleaning evaluations of toothbrushes, interdental brushes, flosses and tapes. We also offer tissue preparation (e.g. human and bovine enamel or dentine), dental restoration materials, and artificial lesion preparation and bioanalytical solutions for clinical samples such as plaque, saliva or gingival crevicular fluid.
