Tissue Collection/ Histology/ Immunohistochemistry

Capabilities

In addition to our in-life capabilities, we also offer tissue collection and histology services aimed to provide interested clients with additional endpoints that could be useful in determining the efficacy of their compound. We offer the following services:

  • Organ collection and processing (most major and minor organs, lymph nodes, major blood vessels through fine or crude dissection methods, provide weights and lengths if requested, and process the tissue for subsequent histological and pathological evaluation).
  • Blood draws (retro-orbital eye bleeds and/or intracardial extraction for the preparation of serum and/or plasma).
  • Staining of tissues, standard histological stains as well as immunohistochemistry (IHC).
  • Histopathology evaluation is offered through collaboration with Charter Preclinical Services.
