Test Article to Results in 5 Business Days

Performing both stand alone in-life studies and as well as integrated studies, Meadowhawk offers standard animal strains (CD1, C57bl/6, Sprague Dawley, and Wistar Han) as well as client specific species/strains – working side-by-side with LCMS and IA teams to deliver results in as little as 5 business days.

Using major rodent suppliers or client dedicated colony rodents, upon proper health check and acclimation we conduct in-life and bioanalysis together to provide specific PK and PK/PD correlated study data. Samples are collected using multiple administration methods (IV, PO, SC, IP, IM, etc.) and include blood-derived samples (whole blood, plasma, serum), cerebrospinal fluid, bile, urine and all types of tissues, including liver, lung, heart, kidney, intestines, muscle, fat, and more.

In the spirit of collaboration and transparency, clients are welcome to monitor or observe their studies on site from dose administration through sample collection.
