Predict neutropenia and severe anemia at the preclinical drug development stage.
These in vitro assays support the growth of erythroid and myeloid progenitors which allows us to evaluate the effect of drugs on red blood cell and white blood cell precursors. We incubate primary bone marrow cells with your test drugs in a semi-solid, methylcellulose-based medium containing growth factors and count the resulting hematopoietic progenitor-derived colonies. We then provide you with a detailed report, including data on changes to the expected number of cell colonies in your drug’s presence.
Discovery’s expert cell biologists have developed numerous novel assays, enabling us to offer a broader and more strategic array of services to our clients. Our ongoing innovations accelerate drug discovery and development, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
