Vivoptic

You would like to:

  • Analyze your samples using bioluminescence or fluorescence imaging
  • Studying the in vivo biodistribution of a fluorescent agent
  • Assess the therapeutic and/or diagnostic potential of an agent or device by imaging
  • Install your therapeutic device in an environment approved for animal experimentation

Vivoptic services

Vivoptic is a platform labeled “France Life Imaging” which offers access to optical imagers and therapeutic devices. Vivoptic helps you in the construction of your project and provides services.

Equipment access

Free access to optical imagers and therapeutic equipment after prior training

Biological models

Custom biological models (genetic modification of a line, in vivo tumor models)

Therapeutic devices

Possibility of installing therapeutic equipment for in vivo experiments. Our premises are decorated.

Practical advice

Practical advice for the experimentation and analysis part

Cell lines

Provision of a cell line (bank available at the platform)

Experimental design
