Wound Healing Models

Obatala offers in vivo studies in different animal models in a variety of animal species. Our most popular animal model is the pressure ulcer model in C57Bl/6 mice (see our white paper about this model here), but we also offer animal models to study skin diseases/injuries, diabetes, cranial defects, and bone repair. Obatala is also ready to work with its customers to develop in vivo studies that will be appropriate for their research purposes.

Oversight

Obatala Sciences Scientific team had decades of experience in research and stays up to date with current best practices and required certifications and trainings. In addition, all animal studies are performed only after protocol review and approval by an independent, academically run Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC). All studies involving de-identified human clinical tissue specimens are performed under protocols reviewed and approved by an independent Institutional Review Board.

Obatala offers the option to perform histology if the customer is performing in vivo studies or providing tissue for cell isolation/expansion. Customers can request that their samples be returned to them as paraffin embedded blocks, fresh frozen samples, or stained/unstained slides. Obatala offers immunohistochemical or immunofluorescence staining of slides.
