ADVANTAGES OF PERSONALIZED SERVICE
HUMAN ORGANOID MODELS
- Short-term and long-term compound testing
- Highly physiological human 3-dimension tissues
- High throughput and lead compound validation
Neurix offers customized services for organoid applications and drug discovery. Our experienced scientists are happy to work with you in order to understand your needs and meet your objectives. Below are examples of services that have been executed to meet specific needs.
ORGANOID GENERATION WITH CUSTOM IPSCS
Our expertise lies in generating organoids from your preferred IPS cell line, which are compatible with both high and low throughput for drug screening. Additionally, our organoids are suitable for compound validation with extended readouts.
CUSTOM ORGANOID MANUFACTURE
Flexibility is at the core of our services. We adeptly generate neural tissues from human stem cells, tailored to align with your unique research interests.
Additionally, Dopaminergic neurons (TH positive) as well as motor neurons (Foxp1 positive) can be generated.
MULTIPLE READOUTS ON ORGANOIDS
A high number of readouts can be applied for neuroscience research and may be adapted to higher throughput for drug discovery.
For example, the fluorescent synapsin reporter for monitoring of neurotoxicity
We performed genomic analysis in our glioblastoma invasion model
We perform routine cytotoxicity assays
Performed deeper neuroscience investigation projects, as an example of glioblastoma invasion
We do cell sorting to quantify neural cell populations or purify newly generated cell lines
DESIGN AND GENERATION OF CELL-BASED ASSAYS
Our scientists are delighted to meet with you and design a custom cell-based assay that precisely aligns with your specific needs. Currently, we are actively developing cell-based assays to accurately assess the quality of bio-active molecules in a cost-effective manner.
