ISOLATED HEART QT PROLONGATION ASSAYS

If your Drug has a Positive hERG Signal, Does it have a QT Risk?
The CT-QT Assay is more than a QT Measurement!


  • Paced heart model – No QT correction required!
  • Measures drug effects on isolated rabbit hearts:
CT-QT Screen: QT only; or
CT-QT: QT, plus contractility (LVP, dP/dtmax & dP/dtmin) & MAPD
GLP & non-GLP protocols available
  • Positive & vehicle controls
  • Performed at physiological temperature 37 + 1° C
