Morphological and Structural Toxicity
Morphological and structural cues are essential components of a complete data package that enables relevant and meaningful decision-making. The microBrain platform of complex neural 2D co-cultures or 3D spheroids/organoids cultures enables multiparametric assessment of neurotoxicity and phenotypic characterization across functional, morphological, and structural endpoints.
Our scientific team is well-versed in a variety of high content imaging endpoints that can be customized to fit your specific needs. Standard and confocal imaging and immunocytochemical and staining techniques can be utilized across a variety of endpoints including (but not limited to):
-
Cell population characteristics and subcellular localization
-
Cellular, neurite, and synaptic remodeling
-
Mitochondrial health and nuclear morphology
-
Viability and apoptosis
-
And much, more...
From feasibility assessment to assay development, implementation, and reporting, StemoniX offers a highly customizable, interactive, and transparent process to generate the data that will move your programs forward.
