Alginate-based 3D cancer cell culture for therapeutic response modeling

STAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Two-dimensional (2D) culture of tumor cells fails to recapitulate some important aspects of cellular organization seen in in vivo experiments. In addition, cell cultures traditionally use non-physiological concentration of nutrients.

Fluorescence/luminescence-based markers for the assessment of Schistosoma mansoni schistosomula drug assays [PDF]

, 2015
Schistosomiasis is responsible for a tremendous public health burden, yet only a single drug, praziquantel, is available. New antischistosomal treatments should therefore be developed. The accuracy, speed and objectivity of in vitro drug screening depend

A high-throughput and highly automated genotoxicity screening assay

ALTEX, 2021
The increasing number of compounds under development and chemicals in commerce that require safety assessments pose a serious challenge for regulatory agencies worldwide. In vitro screening using toxicogenomic biomarkers has been proposed as a first-tier screen in chemical assessment and has been endorsed internationally.
