Ingénierie cellulaire et tissulaire

Our cell biology platform makes it possible for us to detect, quantify, and evaluate the expression level of cell proteins. We offer immunology assays based on standard ELISA and Western Blot type methods as well as flow cytometry (FACS), ICC, FRET methods. These methods allow the identification of proteins and consequently of cells of interest. According to what detail level you wish for in your results, we can provide you with simplex, multiplex studies, with studies on a means of cells in a particular sample or on hundreds of individual cells etc. To find out more, contact us
