Platforms

Voxcan has a total area of 400m² accredited animal facilities with a segregated ABSL-2 and ABSL-3 facilities. We have a capacity to accommodate different species:

Rodents are hosted in ventilated racks (with irradiated single-use cage), which creates a micro-environment and thus maintains health status of: SOPF (Specific and Opportunistic Pathogen Free) or SPF (Specific Pathogen Free). The accommodation of the other species is carried out in parks, which enables to create social groups.

Larger species can be housed by our partners and be addressed to Voxcan for in-vivo imaging analysis. The modern design of Voxcan’s facilities, our work processes, the controlled environment and the health control program including a comprehensive monitoring and scoring programs in place, all of them ensure consistency in our studies, while respecting the welfare of the animals.

Voxcan has a dedicated cellular platform analysis allowing cells expansion for animal models and also for cells specific analysis. For example, in vitro models cell-based assays for pre-clinical drug development including live/dead analysis for in vitro drug screening or mechanistic analysis of drug action with dedicated tests using absorbance/fluorescence plate reader.

Our equipped surgery room, has an induction and recovery room, allows the realization of your models in the best conditions. The organization of the team, with an anesthesiologist who manages the surgeons, allows us to work under optimal aseptic conditions.
