AXXAM

In Vitro
Assays
Focusing on the first steps of the drug discovery process, our work to identify bioactive molecules with the desired pharmacological activity, such as the modulation of a target or a cellular pathway, is fundamental to pave the way toward the development of new drug compounds.
While our services from target validation to lead generation can be shortly described in three blocks, assay development, High-Throughput Screening and profiling/Hit-to-Lead, those include a variety of activities to be taken care of. We have units and scientists specialised in each step of the process, but all of them collaborate to provide our clients with the best strategy to tackle even the most challenging project.
