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 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
Tips for designing your experiment
Prices: Quote on request
Access conditions for any in vivo project:
All projects must comply with regulations for animal experimentation.
Imaging

Bioluminescence and fluorescence imaging in vivo, in vitro et ex vivo.
Real-time fluorescence imaging of intravenous injection of nanoparticles labeled with a fluorophore. This imaging is performed with the Fluobeam.
