Viral Shedding and Infectivity Testing in Clinical Trials of Oncolytic Virotherapy

View our On Demand Webinar "Viral shedding and infectivity testing in clinical trials of oncolytic virotherapies", presented by Kristen Mickey, MS, Research Scientist, R&D. 

Developments in molecular and genomics technologies are dramatically improving the opportunities for development of more effective cancer therapeutics. We offer a broad range of molecular and genomic services to support translational and precision medicine approaches to clinical development. With a wide range of viral and bacterial targets, our clients have access to a broad menu of real-time PCR and quantitative assays for pathogen detection and monitoring, biodistribution and shedding.
Our PCR technology expertise includes: qPCR, RT-PCR, TEM-PCR, ddPCR; and extends across a variety of applications and therapeutic areas.
