Assay Biology
The assay biology group at Anthem Biosciences is dedicated to serve our clients perform in vitro biochemical and cellular studies in order to evaluate potency, and other in vitro pharmacology parameters of their compounds. We have developed and customized assays to validate drug targets, as well as screen small molecule drugs for various therapeutic areas including cancer, inflammatory diseases, metabolic disorders, infections (virus, bacterial and fungal), neurodegenerative ailments, and genetic disorders. We have ongoing projects in the development of biologics. We are continuously adding to the list of assays that we can perform. If you do not see the assay that you need below, please get in touch with us to get the current list, or our experts could provide customized solutions for your research needs.ASSAY BIOLOGY (examples)
