Immune Monitoring Services
As an academic business, our lab integrates a scholarly mission to contribute to the advancement of science and medicine with high quality immune monitoring services. We have assisted numerous academic and industry researchers across the world with consultation, research and development, validation, and data analysis of flow cytometry and immune assays. With access to an array of state of the art instrumentation and staffed by experienced personnel, our lab is able to combine academic expertise with industry standards of efficiency and rigor in our services.
