Modelling Platform for Osteoarthritis
Naason Science models include models for primary and secondary (post-traumatic, congenital etc) OA. All models can combine MRI and CT micro-CT. The models are available in a variety of species.
The models are:
▪ Surgical model for ACLT
▪ Surgical model for Meniscectomy (MMT)
▪ Collagenase Injection
▪ Sodium monoiodoacetate /MIA
▪ Crystallin alpha B KO mouse model
The models can incorporate histopathology and biochemical analysis as we all as imaging as well as 24/7 home-cage monitoring for:
▪ General locomotion
▪ Circadian Rythm
▪ Temperature
▪ Anticipatory behaviour
▪ Social distancing – anxiety & depression
▪ Climbing/rearing behaviour
▪ Gait Analysis
▪ Feeding/drinking
▪ Grooming
