On December 29, 2022, the FDA Modernization Act 2.0 was signed into law, which allows alternatives to animal testing for new drug development. This has opened the door for new pathways to drug discovery and development that involve Artificial Intelligence, cell culture-based assays, and organ-on-chip applications. It also moved the field closer to the three Rs of animal testing:

WPI’s FluoroDish™ cell culture dishes are optimally designed for a wide variety of cell culture and embryology experiments including high resolution imaging, live cell imaging, electrophysiological recordings of fluorescently tagged cells, and microinjection.  FluoroDish™ cell culture dishes are far better than standard petri dishes, because they are designed with optical quality glass bottoms, which offer superior imaging using the latest microscopy technology. WPI’s FluoroDishes™ have been cited in over 550 peer-reviewed publications by cell culture laboratories across the world.

Building a custom surgical instrument kit gives you the flexibility, precision, and control you need to advance medical knowledge, improve patient outcomes, and push the boundaries of surgical science.

Syringes have a wide range of applications in a laboratory setting due to their ability to accurately measure and dispense liquids. Common lab uses include transferring precise volumes of liquid samples from one container to another for dilution, mixing, reagent preparation, and sample extraction. You may be using them for analytical techniques, like chromatography (such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography), spectrophotometry, and titration. Syringes are often used for precise dosing and delivery of reagents during chemical reactions and synthesis processes, or in life science research for aspirating media, adding growth factors or nutrients, and transferring cells. In medical and veterinary research, syringes are used for the injection or infusion of drugs, vaccines, or contrast agents into animal models or cell cultures. Researchers can use lab syringes to collect liquid samples, particularly in environmental monitoring, water quality analysis, or biological...more

WPI’s EVOM™ Technology is a well-established, non-invasive method to verify tissue integrity or barrier function, confluence, and tissue properties in 2-D and 3-D formats. To get the best TEER measurement results with WPI’s EVOM technology, you need to select suitable electrodes based on your application. 

Here are some criteria to consider when selecting a TEER measurement electrode.

In 2022, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 37 new drugs, of which 20 were chemical entities and 17 were biologics. In 2023, drug discovery remains strong with many new advancements a result of changing landscapes in both the types of drugs that are being developed and the new and innovative assay that are being launched to evaluate drugs preclinically. Therapeutic development is still highly focused on diseases that affect large populations of people for which there are lack of effective treatments, with 2023’s most anticipated drug launches expected to be in areas of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular disease, and ulcerative colitis.

This article shows you how to appropriately care for your surgical insturments to ensure long lasting, highly functioning tools for your application.

If the EVOM™ Auto software switches from Resistance to TEER mode while you are selecting menu options, here's a quick tip:

Be careful when selecting Resistance mode, do not tap the background window and do not click on the side arrows.

Tapping the background window will switch you to TEER mode.

Instead, tap an option on the forefront square window to stay in Resistance mode.
