In Vivo DMPK
GD3 offers comprehensive preclinical pharmacokinetic and drug metabolism studies for rodents and rabbits. Our experienced scientists specialize in both systemic and ocular research, working with a diverse range of both small and large molecules including amino acids, nucleic acids, peptides, antibodies, and adeno-associated viruses.
For ocular dosing, we provide expert services from our trained research associates or a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist. To complement pharmacokinetic studies, we offer a variety of pharmacodynamic endpoints, including OCT, FA, and ERG.
