Optical Imaging (OI)

Instruments

Services

The activities include the set up of the service/instrumentation/animal models for OI.

Description

The availability, in this platform, of three state-of-the-art optical imaging instruments allows to perform different kinds of experiments:

  1. Oncology -> Imaging on Transgenic and Xenografts models (tumor biology, apoptosis , angiogenesis, drug efficacy evaluation).
  2. Drug absorption /distribution and metabolism
  3. Cell migration
  4. Gene expression and optical reporter proteins (luciferase, GFP)
  5. Inflammation -> Imaging on induced pathological models (arthritis, macrophage detection)
