It offers an extensive selection of oncology models, utilizing in vivo syngeneic, cell-derived xenograft (CDX), and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The facility provides key analyses, including flow cytometry (FACS), ELISA assays, and tissue preservation (FFPE). These platforms and services are instrumental in the development and efficacy testing of novel oncology drugs and therapeutics.
