BIOPTA

Tissue Based Preclinical Drug Trial System

Biopta's PM1 instrument provides real-time information on drug potency by measuring changes in the shape and form of isolated blood vessels during a pre-programmed perfusion schedule.

We used our skills in product design and engineering to develop a complex system combining fluid handling with digital image capture and analysis. The resulting product embodies Biopta's patented technology in a self-automated system supported by our custom PC application software.

The product is now being sold for use in preclinical drug development programmes.
