Westbury, NY – Oct. 19, 2020 – BioIVT, a leading provider of research models and services for drug and diagnostic development, today launched its HEPATOMUNE® kit, a long-term, stable, in vitro model for evaluating immune-related and inflammation-mediated liver injury.
HEPATOMUNE cultures are composed of hepatocytes, stromal cells and Kupffer cells in a tri-culture, mimicking the physiological microenvironment of the liver, and providing an optimal model for studying cytokines and cytokine modulators. Cytokines have important roles in chemically induced tissue damage repair, in cancer…
AMSBIO has further expanded its product range to help in the fight against COVID-19 with the introduction of a new range of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and antigens to aid development of new immunoassay diagnostic kits.While RT-PCR diagnostic kits has provided fast and sensitive COVID-19 case confirmation, the technique suffers from some inherent drawbacks that limit it to diagnosis during the acute phase of infection. To facilitate rapid screening and instant detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection, development of faster and convenient antibody and antigen-based…
