Nanoimmunotech is a Spanish biotech company and reference partner within the nanobiotechnology world. Nanoimmunotech offers a complete portfolio of physico-chemical and biological characterization services called nitbiosafe. We perform a full set of in vitro and in vivo assays to check the risk of different nanomaterials: toxicity, biocompatibility (hemo and cytocompatibility), biodistribution, immunogenicity, sterility, among other assays.
Nitbiosafe services are based on standardized protocols and experimental environments that ensure optimal laboratory results, implementing USA recommendations and all EU regulation regarding nanosafety.
Nanoimmunotech team has been involved in the field of Nanotoxicity. We are members of different workgroups and platforms, as European Platform of Nanomedicine (ETPN), having participated in several projects and networks related to nanosafety and collaborated with other partners in this field.
