Translational Pharmacology (PTP) Core

Overview of Services

The Purdue Translational Pharmacology (PTP) Core conducts in vivo studies that avoid the stress-induced complications of traditional biofluid collection and provide a translational model more closely aligned with drug metabolism in humans. The facility serves individual investigators, government entities, and private companies.

• ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) studies
• Drug formulation studies to test alternate dosage forms
• Pharmacokinetic evaluations of drug candidates
• Bioavailability and first pass metabolism studies
• Toxicology studies
• Pharmacodynamic studies to examine the physiological effects of compounds
