Product news

iWorx, a developer of advanced physiology research tools, has introduced the LabScribe2 Monophasic Action Potential (MAP) Module for measuring and analyzing these signals in physiological animal research.

The MAP software module identifies common parameters such as maximum, minimum and plateau voltages. The LabScribe2 MAP Module also enables user defined recovery points and records rates of change. Other parameters measured by the Module include frequency, EDV (voltage prior to the upstroke), minimum and maximum dAdt, Amp (Plateau voltage minus EDV), rise, and duration.

iWorx LabScribe2 Monophasic Action Potential Module is optimized for iWorx high performance data acquisition systems capable of recording at sampling rates required for the most demanding research applications.

If stimulation is required, recorders are available with built-in stimulators that are software controlled via the LabScribe2 stimulator interface. iWorx also offers additional LabScribe2 software modules for blood pressure measurement and analysis, ECG analysis, metabolic calculations, pressure-volume loops, and cardiac analyses.

Find bioassays for absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drug molecules including cytotoxicity, transporter/permeability, metabolism and activity assays as well as hepatocytes and cell lines for ADME. Find the best ADME-toxicology products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Medicinal ChemistryMedicinal chemistry is a broad discipline encompassing the design, identification, synthesis and development of chemicals in drug discovery. It includes a number of techniques covering structural biology, synthetic chemistry and molecular biology. Technologies used in medicinal chemistry include ADME, lab-on-a-chip, high content screening and assay assembly.Clinical TrialsClinical Trials, an essential part of drug discovery process, assess the safety and effectiveness of a new medication or device in the pharmaceutical industry. Clinical Trials are a phased process (Phase 0, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III and Phase IV) which begins after initial preclinical testing.
