In vitro Antitumor Activity
The aim of this service is to evaluate the in vitro antitumor activity of compounds in different types of human cancer cell lines in which we determine the effect using different types of assays including MTT, LDH release and caspase activation. The cellular models that we offer include human cell lines from different tumor types including hematologic and solid neoplasias.
Customer benefits
The costumer will benefit from more than 20 years of experience of the researchers involved in the service that have performed the in vitro evaluation of the antitumor activity of different nanoparticles and other types of compounds. We offer also the possibility of setting up new in vitro assays or to offer other cellular models that could be of interest for the costumer. Moreover, the conditions of the assays are flexible and will be adapted to the needs of each specific compound.
Target customer
The offered service can be of interest to research groups of academia or companies willing to test the antitumor activity of any compound in vitro.
