The twenty-first century began with the completion of the human genome project and the dawn of proteomics and systems-biology. These emerging fields will attempt to understand how newly discovered proteins impact human physiology and disease. As researchers progress from molecular- and cellular-based studies to in vivo systems, innovative technologies are needed to allow multiple tracking of probes and multiple measurements of functional parameters in in vivo models. One arena of research that has emerged due to recent discoveries is the field of cellular transplantation.BioPAL has developed
a number of innovative products to aid researchers locate, track, and quantify implanted cells in in vivo
systems. Many of these products can be found nowhere else!

Cell Labeling and
Cell Tracking Service
BioPAL and SBH Sciences provide
a cell-labeling and cell-tracking service for those customers that do not have
in-house cell-labeling capability. Cells are labeled with colloidal probes
developed at BioPAL, as listed above. Colloidal probes can be detected by
fluorescence, MRI and neutron activation. Cells are grown, labeled and
prepared for shipping at SBH Sciences. The Client provides cells for
labeling. Following labeling, frozen cells are returned to the Client.
Applications include: CTC assays, immune-cell migration, inflammation studies,
microbial and viral disease localization, and stem cell mediated tissue
regeneration.
