Skin microdialysis setup
RefLab has extensive experience in studies employing the microdialysis technique. Microdialysis has many applications:
- In vivo and in vitro studies
- Animal and human studies
- Measuring a wide range of biomarkers
- Translational studies bridging in vivo animal studies to in vivo human studies
