Our use of C. elegans combined with our unique automated technology means we can detect toxicity much more quickly than the use of other in-vivo models.
Our Healthspan assay on adult sterile worms can detect chronic effects on ageing, mobility and behaviour, but we also conduct Developmental and Reproductive Toxicity (DART) assays. With 300 progeny produced by each healthy adult worm in 3 days, we can detect acute developmental and reproductive toxicity fast and with sensitivity.
