In vitro Biology

Our team provides a wide range of services in biochemical assays, mechanistic assays, functional assays, immunological assays and various customized assays.

Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK)

We provide precise data and insightful analysis of a drug's absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) properties. These insights help the clients to shortlist compounds with a high likelihood of success in later stages of drug development. DMPK tests include:

  • Physicochemical parameters
  • Metabolism studies
  • Permeability
  • Distribution
  • Drug-drug interactions
  • Pharmacokinetics
  • Bioanalysis

In vivo Pharmacology Studies

Our in vivo pharmacology team has expertise across multiple therapeutic areas. The team is supported by an AAALAC accredited, GLP-certified vivarium and experienced scientists who can set up diverse efficacy models as per program or client needs. We offer target engagement and efficacy models for:

  • Oncology and immuno-oncology
  • Metabolic disorders
  • Inflammation
  • Pain
  • Acute inflammation
  • Auto-immune disorders
  • Syngeneic tumor
  • Muscle regeneration
  • Skin disorders

These are validated with reference compounds and supported by histopathology and biomarker analysis.

Pharmaceutical Microbiology Testing

Our pharmaceutical microbiology testing department has a BSL-2 compliant lab and a dedicated in vivo facility for bacterial and fungal infection murine disease models. Our team has vast experience in anti-infective drug discovery biology projects. The team has worked on several collaboration projects with innovator pharma companies to discover antibacterial and antifungal agents. We have also established in-vitro time-kill kinetics bioequivalence assays of generic products for regulatory submission.

Toxicology

We offer a full range of exploratory and GLP toxicology studies supported by clinical and anatomic pathology services, formulation analysis, toxicokinetic analysis and interpretation and reporting. General toxicology studies range from single-dose and repeat dose toxicology studies, genetic toxicology and IND and NDA enabling safety toxicology packages. We have a track record of successfully filing INDs using the in-house data with US FDA, MHRA, EMA, DCGI and ANDAs.

“Bathtub Chemistry” - Necessity and Aspects of Process Research

Medicine is an essential part of our life. Since ancient time human civilization has been tirelessly engaged to understand the cause and effect of a disease. Sometimes they win and many times they lose. But the story of their curiosity and enthusiasm is a never damping process. On the contrary it increases day by day, year after year.Drug discovery is a vast and ...

Accelerating Drug Discovery Through Innovative Partnerships

Genomics plays a vital role in identifying which gene is associated with a specific disease. A gene called CNOT1 is for example known for it's effect on brain development and for impairing memory and learning. Despite the great promise genomics provides in understanding the disease, genes are not the best drug targets....

Revisiting the reaction of b-chloroacroleins with 2-aminophenol: a new observation

2008

The reaction of b-chloroacrolein with 1 equiv of 2-aminophenol in DMF proceeds smoothly to afford 11-hydroxy derivative of chromenoquinoline in good yield. This single pot method allows for a rapid access to a variety of chromenoquinolines or oxepinoquinolines depending on the nature of b-chloroacrolein used. The structures were established by spectroscopic data ...
