Med Discovery is active in the field of cancer
research. Our R&D department set up protocols to test anticancer
drugs in various animal models. We offer our expertise and facilities
to
help you with your needs. Our custom services are provided to companies
and individual researchers on a contract or fee-for-service basis.
We welcome short-term and long-term projects. Please contact us at

Med Discovery established many different xenografts human cancer
models in mice (other models are also available upon request). These
models are used to measure in-vivo activity of compounds and determine
effective doses of your drugs. Post-injection analysis may include
gene or protein expression analysis of tumors or serum by RT-PCR
or Western Blot / SDS-PAGE or quantification of specific proteins
by ELISA.
In-house and in our facilities at the University of Mogi das Cruzes
in Sao Paulo, Brazil, we are able to offer you in-vivo services to
evaluate your compounds in mice. Whether you are looking for advice
in experimental set-up, have some clearly defined needs for in-vivo
testing of your compounds or if you are looking for a complete package,
where we take care of design, execution and analysis of your project.
