We have standardized and routinely perform more than 125 in-vitro assays relevant to selection and optimization of new drug candidates using specialized assay technologies based on different detection modes like Absorbance (colorimetric, ELISA), Luminescence and Fluorescence (Fluorescence Intensity, Fluorescence Polarization, Time Resolved Fluorescence etc) in 96 and 384 well formats. The simple, rapid and cost effective nature of bioassays facilitates screening of large number of samples. Plants effective in in-vitro assays are developed into prototypes, which ultimately get tested in in-vivo assays.

Apart from new product development, bio-assays can be effectively be used for screening campaigns, bio-activity guided fractionation, compatibility studies, and stability studies.

• Development of in-vitro pharmacological methods for drug evaluation.
• Biological standardization of herbal products.
• Application of bioassay methods to stability testing and testing combinational effect of herbal extracts.
