Making transgenics in C. elegans requires specialist equipment, expertise and time. If you’re missing one or more of these elements, we can help you out.
We can generate C. elegans strains tailored to the exact needs of your project. Whether you have a well-established C. elegans programme in your own lab, or you want to include disease-relevant strains to one of our service assays, you can expect:
Step 1: Tell us about the experiments you wish to perform: Overexpression, fluorescent reporter, deletion, single point mutation or something else? We can provide a full consultation service to discuss the options available and together we can decide on the best solution for your needs.
Step 2: We generate your transgenic C. elegans lines: Extrachromosomal arrays, integrated lines or genome editing? The latest techniques will be used to generate and validate your lines.
Step 3: You receive your C. elegans lines: Your custom transgenic lines are ready for your experiments and we are still here to address any issues that may occur and to provide full support.
Biotech
Biotech professionals must progress their drug discovery R&D timelines fast in
order to make the best use of their funding and IP. We help you take the jump from
petri dish to mammal in vivo models with confidence and more quickly than going straight
to rodent models.
Health and Manufacturing
Consumer goods, manufacturing and other industries investing in R&D want to put
the best quality, eco-friendly products out on the market. However, testing your
compounds for impact on environmental and human health can lead to overly complex,
ethically challenging and time-consuming studies with animal models. C. elegans offer
an ethical approach that can get the data you need on your compound in as little as three weeks.
Pharma
The pressure on drug developers is greater than ever and pharma need to look to
innovative new tools to stay ahead of the competition. C. elegans offer an NC3Rs-approved
avenue to fast-track preclinical research, to save you from or reduce your reliance on
high-investment rodent studies.
Academia
You want to progress your research and improve lab operations but access to the
right technologies, technological expertise and the time to juggle everything is
challenging. We offer high-quality C. elegans lab services, transgenics services,
and machine leasing of our unique automated technology to help you stay top of your field.
Take the jump from petri dish to in vivo models with confidence.
