BASi Neuroscience Newsletter - December 2011

Warm wishes to you and your family this holiday season and into the New Year.
From your friends at BASi
 

Society for Neuroscience 2011

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at Neuroscience in Washington DC. It was great to reconnect with friends and meet new people who share our love of science. The winner of our raffle ($1,000 credit toward a BASi purchase) was Karen Baskerville of Lincoln University.

Collaboration with Pinnacle Technology

A partnership with Pinnacle Technology of Lawrence, Kansas, is allowing BASi to expand its product line and services to better meet the needs of neurochemical research. This formal collaboration means we are able to provide the most comprehensive in vivo monitoring and sampling on the market today. Pinnacle Technology manufactures biosensors and neurophysiological instruments that complement our neuroscience technology and expertise. Together, we offer a unique platform to collect multiple streams of concurrent data giving greater insight to brain function.

In Your Lab or Ours: Simultaneous PK/PD results.

Watching the change of endogenous neuro-chemicals or drug concentrations in the brain at the same time as monitoring the change of vascular drug (or other substances) concentration provides important corollary information about the drug's deposition, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) parameters, blood-brain barrier penetration and more.

Simultaneous collection of multiple streams of data of the types mentioned can be done using BASi instrumentation in your laboratory or can be contracted in our laboratories. Download this example that demonstrates the ability to automatically dose a test subject then simultaneously collect blood for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis and microdialysis samples for pharmacodynamic (PD) determinations.
