Assay Development & HTS- High Throughput screening

Activity of the NCE at enzymes , receptors, ion channel , signal transduction pathways etc In-vitro and HTS is used to find out the efficacy and selecting alternate lead.
Animal model with therapeutic focus.

Efficacy model focus on therapeutic areas such as Pain, inflammation ,Metabolic disorder, cancer, CVS, Dislipidaemia, Anti infective ,auto immune diseases Assessment such as Clinical, joint pathology, immunology, disease progression and other drug specific parameters
ADME Services
It

is carried out during the lead optimization of NCE and this helps In reducing the time and cost of the discovery Absorption disposition, metabolism and excretion parameters will help to determine the desirable Drug able properties .

Metabolite identification

By identifying the susceptibilities and issues and metabolic path way of the NCE help to take decision on merit of further development of the drug candidate
Toxicology Service

Assays/ Studies such as in-vitro, or on mammalian or cultures bacteria , in-vivo on rodents will help to determine the extend of liability of NCE
Pre-formulation

Physicochemical properties like stability will help us determine the stability of the drug under various conditions and further help us developing correct delivery system.
