Treatments & Drug Dosing

Animal models facilitate the study of the pathogenesis and complications of infectious disease, and permit evaluation of treatment protocols that may not be feasible or ethical in human patients.

TICRO’s in vivo testing of new pharmaceutical agents in mouse models allows critical early-stage evaluation of potential toxicity and any unexpected side-effects of therapeutics prior to human application. Our expertly-trained staff, with decades of experience, can partner with our clients to design novel techniques that may not be available elsewhere.

Standard routes of injection are available for any project (see Injections & Surgery). Additionally, the following frequently requested treatment and drug dosing routes are available to be included within experimental designs.
