Trevigen Cell Assays (TCA) Services
Trevigen Cell Assays (TCA), a division of Trevigen, Inc., was established in 2008 to conduct contract research work for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, government and academic segments of the medical research market. TCA specializes in designing and conducting assays for lead compounds and genotoxic screening based on DNA damage and repair as well as cancer cell behavior.
Process:
- A Project Manager and a Senior Scientist is assigned for every project
- A detailed Protocol and Schedule is prepared before the work begins
- Site training is available if applicable
- Observations, comments, and updates are sent by e-mail during the study
- A Final Report with Graphical analysis is provided
Advantages:
- The technical team at TCA developed the assays and is unmatched in skill and knowledge.
- Confidentiality is assured. A Non-Disclosure Agreement can be executed if requested.
