Contract Research & Development | | | | | Service Portfolio / Contract Research & Development Cell-based Technology Development AvantiCell's Contract Research and Development (R&D) service provides clients with innovative solutions to their culture needs, whether this be a protocol for cell isolation or a complete system for research or screening purposes.
Examples of AvantiCell’s R&D commissions include:
• Isolation of “difficult” cells and optimisation of cell
• performance in culture
• Identification of bioactive components in complex
• mixtures (see below)
• Biomaterials evaluation and cell-scaffold development
• Derivation of co-culture systems for study of complex
• or interactive processes e.g. for integrated studies of
• metabolism
Natural Product Therapeutic Development Cell-based screening can be complemented by detailed chemical analysis of natural materials through AvantiCell’s service partnerships with leading organisations in the fields of traditional medicines, natural-product therapeutics and functional foods. Chemical characterization of these complex biochemical mixtures is achieved using a range of chromatographic fractionation techniques, together with mass spectrometric or proteomic analysis, all backed by our research partners’ experience directly relevant to the complex biochemical mixtures found in traditional medicines, temperate and tropical plants extracts or foodstuffs.
AvantiCell’s service partnerships draw upon the expertise of specialists located in Italy, Malaysia and Shanghai, China. In-house cell-based screening, combined with partner chemical fractionation and structural analysis have been applied successfully to identify the bioactive components of known and novel therapeutics in biochemically-complex natural materials, providing scientific validation of the original material and offering routes to synthetic reconstitution of their therapeutic activity. Please contact AvantiCell to discuss your specialised analytical requirements..
Client-commissioned contract research and development is undertaken in the expectation that all foreground intellectual property is owned by the client.
