Hurel Corporation Details

HµREL® develops and sells advanced micro-liver tissue constructs of primary cryopreserved hepatocytes co-cultured with nonparenchymal stromal cells, in a variety of species and formats. With a focus on lab practicality and convenience, HµREL delivers its products ready for use with no preparatory tissue culture and includes all necessary media with each shipment.HµREL's stable, robust, high-functioning metabolically competent models have been demonstrated to endure for much longer time periods than traditional hepatic systems. These robust micro-tissues allow a variety of novel in vitro experiments, including: studies of clearance rates of low-clearing compounds; metabolite generation studies with the ability to produce more in vivo relevant metabolites; long-term inhibition assays for cyp contribution; long-term DDI studies; and the ability of repeat-dosing studies to probe mechanism-based metabolic enzyme activity, or sub-acute/chronic toxicities, including cholestatic liabilities among others. HµREL's robust primary hepatic co-cultures are shipped directly to our customers throughout the world from our corporate office in North Brunswick, NJ.
