NeoSome offers a comprehensive approach to evaluating anti-infective agents.
We can support your program from initial in vitro assessment, through tolerability testing, primary in vivo screening to target organ efficacy, and PK/PD evaluations.
In vitro assays include: MICs, MBCs, PAEs, Time Kill curves, Checkerboard assays and susceptibility testing.

We customize our animal models to fit your project goals and timelines.
​
Many models are “ready to run”. We can modify these animal models to suit your research program needs including susceptible and resistance isolates, prophylactic and therapeutic dosing schedules, multiple administration routes, and regimens.
Neutropenic Rat thigh infection model with MRSA IV dose administration of test agents Bio-burden determined in thigh muscle.
Neutropenic Rat pneumonia model with MRSA SC dose administration of test agents Bio-burden determined in lung tissue.
Infection via IV injection Therapy initiated 2 hours post infection Bioburden assessed in kidneys and bladder at 26 hours
