We are making up for lost time! Xona Microfluidics is pleased to be attending the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference 2022 held in San Diego, California July 31 to August 4. Please visit us at booth #117.
Xona Microfluidics provides contract research and assay development services for preclinical AD and neurodegenerative disease research. Xona’s microfluidic platforms facilitate neuron-based studies, including for low- to medium- throughput drug screens. Our patented compartmentalized chip technology directs the growth of axons from a somatodendritic compartment to an isolated axonal compartment allowing distinct microenvironments within each compartment to be established. Xona sells compartmentalized microfluidic chambers in two formats: Preassembled XonaChips® and original Silicone (PDMS) Devices. Over 1,000 publications cite our compartmentalized microfluidic devices and chips. Many of these publications can be found on our publications page.
Xona Microfluidics received phase I SBIR funding from the National Institute for Aging to develop preclinical screening tools for drug discovery and testing. As stated by the NIH, the “development of novel therapeutics for the treatment of AD/ADRD has proven to be a lengthy, costly, and relatively unproductive process, with drug attrition rates of over 90%…. Consequently, there is a critical need for translation platforms that can accurately and reproducibly mimic the AD/ADRD phenotype in vivo and be amenable to high-content screening and assay applications.”
During this Phase I we are looking to form partnerships with potential customers to develop additional AD/ADRD assays and to scale up the number of compounds to be screened. If you are interested in our assay development services for AD/ADRD, please contact us at info@xona.us to set up a time to discuss your project.
Xona Microfluidics provides high quality microfluidic devices for culturing neurons to customers worldwide.
