Inflammation

WBI offers a wide variety of economical, in vivo models to assess efficacy of anti-inflammatory test compounds. Our experienced technical personnel provide quality studies and experienced observations for your full information.

Your study receives our careful attention –

  • A WBI Project Manager assigned to every project
  • A complete, detailed Protocol and Schedule is prepared for your acceptance before work begins
  • During your study you will receive timely updates by e-mail on results, observations and schedule status
  • Your completed Project is fully described in a Final Report including statistical/graphical analysis of results

In Vivo Inflammation Models

  1. Carrageenan Paw Edema (CPE) - rapid one-day initial screen for anti-inflammatory activity
  2. Adjuvant-Induced Arthritis (AIA) - 1-month detailed study of anti-inflammatory activity
  3. Collagen-Induced Arthritis (CIA) * - 6-week detailed study using an autoimmune mechanism to mimic human arthritis
  4. Mouse Ear Edema – Topical - an excellent measure of topical anti-inflammatory activity
  5. Mouse LPS Model - cytokine analysis of LPS-stimulated inflammation
  6. Whole Blood Assay (WBA) - In Vitro assay measuring cytokine production/inhibition within inflamed whole human blood – modeling the environment for actual drug activity
  7. Air Pouch Model (APM) - cell response analysis in rat or mouse

You can choose from additional WBI services to extend analysis of inflammatory effects as may be beneficial for your requirements: Blood samples, clinical chemistries, cell counts and differentials, necropsy, organ removals and preservation, histologies.
