Ion channel expertise

ChanTest is the most experienced ion channel services company in the world.

ChanTest has no competitors that specialize exclusively in comprehensive ion channel services. ChanTest’s large, experienced scientific staff, including 18 PhD scientists, has extensive ion channel expertise. Indeed, the company employs the leading experts in ion channels who are dedicated to providing individual attention to serve each customer’s needs. Specialties include molecular and cell biology, analytical chemistry, electrophysiology, physiology, pharmacology, biophysics, and related disciplines.

ChanTest is equally committed to innovation. It is currently implementing a $10 million program to develop the world’s most extensive catalog of ion channels that have been fully validated for interrogation with functional, pharmacological, and biochemical assays. Because of ChanTest’s seminal role in this field, along with the company’s uncompromising commitment to quality, ChanTest was named “most trusted fee-for-service provider” for ion channel screening in the HTStec Ion Channel Trends Survey for two years in a row.

Our customers benefit from our work with the FDA and others in the clinical-research and regulatory arenas, and from our 25+ years of ion channel research in various therapeutic targets. ChanTest always remains ahead of the curve on the latest ion channel research, new areas of interest for regulators, and upcoming regulatory requirements.
