Lifecycle:1 Jan 1993 →  30 Sep 2021
Organisation profile:Scientific research in the field of veterinary pharmacology: Performing pharmacokinetic, bioavailability, bioequivalence, residue and ecotoxicity studies of medicinal products in various animal species. The emphasis is on antibiotics, anthelmintics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Develop inflammation models for checking pharmacodynamics.Scientific research in the field of veterinary toxicology: developing chromatographic methods for the qualitative and quantitative determination of toxins in animal matrices and study of the effects of mycotoxins in nutritional animals.Scientific research in the field of veterinary biochemistry: study of biochemical markers at cellular and secreted levels in blood, urine and tissues in various animal species within the framework of pathobiochemistry of infectious diseases. The focus is on the innate defenses, more specifically on the neutrophil and related inflammatory mediators. Development of) inflammatory models both in vivo (intra-mamma and intrauterine in mice) as in vitro (bovine, canine and equine primary cell cultures for Escherichia coli mastitis (pyramid) and pyometra (dog), Staphylococcus intermedius pyodermia and infectious arthritis ). Flow cytometry is the main analytical technique.
