>Animal Surgical Service
SURGICAL SERVICES OVERVIEW
| Our Company’s surgical team provides surgical modification animals and surgery-induced disease models for pre-clinic drug efficacy study and therapeutic strategy testing. Our customers include institutes, leading research organizations and pharmaceutical biotechnology industries nationwide. Biotang Inc. serves as a resource to provide expertise in animal disease model design, pre-instrumented animals, surgery-induced small animal models and on-site surgical technique support. Our surgical team also can develop specific techniques to meet your individual requirements and help accelerate your preclinical program.
Our surgical procedures are developed in-house and performed by scientists who have surgeon background with micro-surgical techniques.
We offer on-site surgical support that allow company’s surgeon to provide surgical services at your facility. The “Rent-A-Surgeon” program will sent one surgeon to your facility for an entire day to perform IACUC-approved surgical procedures as requested by you. Charges for Rent-A-Surgeon”are $2200 per day plus expenses.
Contact us to see completely pricing for our surgical services. Surgical procedures do not include the price of the animal, shipping and container charges.
