Sens-it-iv is an EU-funded project that finished in March 2011 after 66 months of activity. The ultimate goal of the project was the development of a set of in vitro methods for the assessment of the skin and respiratory sensitization potential of chemicals and proteins. At the end of the project it can be concluded that the goal has been largely accomplished. This work presents a list of methods that are ready for skin sensitization hazard assessment. Potency evaluation and the possibility of distinguishing skin from respiratory sensitizers are also well advanced.
