Pathogen Research

Cell-based Arrayed Drug Screening with Live BSL-3 Pathogens

CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE - feel free to wishlist for later!

A wide range of libraries for drug discovery for pathogen treatment will be available.

Service options:

Available Arrayed libraries in 384 format:

1) Prestwick FDA/EMA Approved Drug Library – 1,760 compounds 
2) Prestwick Phytochemical Library- 640 compounds
3) Smart Fragment Library- 320 compounds

Option 1 Biochemical assays. Image-based phenotypic screening. Automated confocal fluorescence imaging combined with automated image analysis and quantitative feature extraction. Data are generated at the single-cell level and can be exported at both cell-level and well-level resolution.  Allows  Infection-based screening using live pathogens and Time-of-addition experiments to investigate the stage-specific effects of drugs during the pathogen life cycle. Allows kinetic multi time point measurement of live cells if needed.
