Preclinical safety 

Accurate safety profiling of any new test item requires both solid routine expertise in meeting regulatory requirements and the flexibility to fit each project or investigate mechanistic issues. Leveraging decades of expertise in toxicology services within a GLP-certified test facility, combined with the innovative approaches of a dedicated research center, Nuvisan provides comprehensive support for the targeted and efficient development of human and veterinary pharmaceuticals, industrial products and agrochemicals.

In vitro toxicology

Our in vitro assays (both GLP and non-GLP) contribute to accurately capturing the safety profile of your test item while reducing the use of laboratory animals. With different screening protocols for each endpoint, we offer high-throughput in vitro toxicity testing using minimal amounts of the test item, as well as highly predictive testing close to regulatory guideline studies. All assay designs can be tailored to your specific needs.

In vivo toxicology and safety pharmacology

In vivo toxicology involves testing new molecules in living organisms to assess their safety and effects, which is crucial before human trials or market release. Safety pharmacology focuses on potential adverse effects on vital functions like cardiovascular, respiratory and central nervous systems. While we do not directly offer these studies, we assist in designing, monitoring and interpreting data from these studies conducted by our partners, helping ensure regulatory compliance and patient safety.
