Lack of effective disease models is one of the important reasons for the low success rate of CNS drug development. TriApex provides non-human primate (NHP) models for a variety of central nervous system diseases. The core team is staffed by scientists in the fields of neurology, clinical medicine and neuropharmacology, of which masters and doctors accounting for 80%, and committed to the establishment of CNS disease models and pharmacological/pharmacodynamic research.
TriApex is capable to perform the intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection, striatum injection, hippocampus injection, intrathecal injection, foramen magnum injection and injection to other brain regions in NHPs, rats, mice, etc.
