Luminescence Imaging

Visualize biological processes directly in vivo. As an agile CRO, we offer tailored 2D optical bioluminescence imaging (BLI) to non-invasively and semi-quantitatively evaluate your compounds and disease models even in a longitudinal context. By utilizing the Andor iKon-M water-cooled, highly light-sensitive CCD camera, we achieve an outstanding signal-to-noise ratio. We combine this superior hardware with smart data analysis, delivering precise and reliable results.

Applications

ApplicationDescription
Biodistribution & Drug DeliverySemi-quantitative tracking of delivery systems (such as LNPs, viral vectors, or biologics) to assess their in vivo localization, target accumulation, functional reporter gene expression, and clearance.
Cell Tracking (e.g., CAR-T, Stem Cells)Semi-quantitative observation of the survival, migration, and proliferation of transplanted therapeutic cells within the host organism over time.
Gene Expression & Promoter ActivityEvaluating specific genetic responses, such as inflammation or tissue repair markers, using luminescent reporter systems directly in vivo.
Infectious Disease ProgressionVisualizing the spread, tissue tropism, and eradication of luminescently tagged bacterial or viral pathogens during antimicrobial efficacy studies.
Oncology & Tumor ModelingLongitudinal tracking of tumor growth, metastasis formation, and therapeutic response using luciferase-expressing cancer cell lines in living models.
