Company Activity
Biopta is a unique in vitro pharmacology company with two divisions. These divisions work synergistically delivering ex vivo human tissue research services and automated in vitro pharmacology instruments to the pharmaceutical industry and research groups worldwide.
Biopta’s human tissue research services are utilised by global pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to improve the predictability and efficiency of their drug development. These services provide fully GLP in vitro pharmacology screening in ethically donated human tissues. These ex vivo tissue assays are used to provide either proof of concept in man or detect potential human adverse effects much earlier in the development process. These highly predictive assays are seen to bridge the gap between cell based screening and whole animal in vivo studies.
In addition Biopta’s instrument division has designed and developed a novel platform technology for physiology/pharmacology research. Their first instrument, PM-1 is designed for isolated tissue pharmacology and has recently been launched.
