  1. Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics Core Goal: To provide comprehensive pharmacology support for preclinical and clinical research

  2. Services: • Pharmacokinetic studies: Quantify drug levels in serum/plasma, tissue or cells • Evaluation of Organ Toxicity: Blood chemistry analysis for liver, kidney and bone marrow toxicity • Hematology: Measure complete blood counts • Measure GSH/GSSG • Redox analysis: Detection of protein thiol status in cells, tissue, serum and plasma. • Education and training
