Services
GLP Toxicology Studies
Regulatory and discovery toxicology studies (acute, subacute, sub-chronic, chronic, developmental/reproductive, inhalation) conducted under GLP.
Pathology and Histology Services
Clinical pathology, necropsy, histopathology slide preparation and evaluation, special staining and immunohistochemistry for integration with toxicology and efficacy studies.
Pharmacokinetics and Tissue Distribution
PK and tissue distribution studies with single, multiple and cassette dosing across multiple species and administration routes to support ADME and safety assessments.
In vitro and Genotoxicity Services
Comprehensive genotoxicity and in vitro testing services including Ames, micronucleus, chromosomal aberration and gene mutation assays with bioanalytical support.
Biology and Animal Model Development
Development and standardization of in vivo and in vitro disease models (inflammation, pain, metabolic disorders, antipsychotic/neurobehavioral models, osteoporosis, wound healing, glaucoma and custom models) for efficacy and mechanism studies.
Biocompatibility Testing for Medical Devices
Device biocompatibility evaluations including cytotoxicity, hemocompatibility, implantation, sensitization, irritation and systemic toxicity testing to support device safety submissions.
