Features
- Cytotoxicity testing using a standard hemolysis assay to determine the potential harm of compounds to human cell membranes, with customized assays available.
- Antimicrobial testing to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and kinetics of bactericidal activity against a panel of bacterial strains.
- Organoid services using 3D cell-based models of human organs for disease modeling, drug screening, and biomarker discovery.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and high-resolution confocal microscopy for imaging of frozen sections and data analysis.
- Single-cell transcriptomics using split-pool combinatorial barcoding technology for high-throughput and high-quality single-cell/nuclei transcriptomic profiles.
- Proteomics services offering accurate protein quantification via global (shotgun) or targeted mass spectrometry.
- Bioinformatics services for analysis of differentially expressed genes/proteins and pathways affected by gene dysfunction/disease/treatment, including AI-driven omics analysis.
- Streamlined ordering system for cost-effective standard packages with rapid turnaround times.
