What types of in vitro BBB models does Creative Biolabs utilize?

Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) Study

The platform relies on advanced models to simulate human physiology:

Co-culture Systems: Utilizing primary or immortalized brain endothelial cells, astrocytes, and pericytes to mimic the neurovascular unit (NVU).

Dynamic Flow Systems: Simulating hemodynamics and shear stress to improve the model's physiological relevance.

Standard Assays: Including PAMPA (Parallel Artificial Membrane Permeability Assay) for high-throughput screening of passive diffusion.
