04 in vitro II: Biological Performance & Cell Interaction Studies

Introduction

The 04 in vitro II (cytology) department at INVITROVO plays a critical role in evaluating the biological performance of synthesized biomaterials. After initial development and physicochemical testing in the Biomaterial Department, each material undergoes thorough in vitro testing to assess its essential interaction with living cells, ensuring it meets the intended biomedical objectives. Using state-of-the-art equipment and specialized cell culture techniques, our expert team investigates key cellular responses, including viability, proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation. Every cytological analysis is performed with precision to ensure safety, efficacy, and biological relevance, with research tailored to match the specific goals of each project.

Aim

The strategic aim of the Cytology Department is to maximize the biological relevance and safety profile of every research project by validating material-cell interactions. We achieve this by focusing on:

To Validate Biological Performance: To thoroughly evaluate the interaction of synthesized biomaterials with living cells, ensuring they meet the highest standards for intended biomedical applications.
To Assess Cytocompatibility and Function: To precisely measure key cellular responses—such as cell viability, proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation—to guarantee the safety and biological relevance of all tested materials.
To Support Translational Therapies: To provide the critical in vitro data needed for materials targeting enhanced wound healing, controlled drug release, and stem cell-based therapies, facilitating their successful transition from lab to life.

Scope

The operational scope of the 04 in vitro II (cytology) department encompasses advanced in vitro techniques necessary for comprehensive evaluation and validation. We provide end-to-end support covering:

Core Cytological Assays: Performing comprehensive in vitro testing to assess cell interaction, including the investigation of:
