Caliper Life Sciences' Optical Imaging Technology Selected To Aid Tuberculosis Research Efforts By The Texas A&M Health Science Center
Caliper Life
Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CALP) announced that the Texas A&M Health
Science Center Research Foundation (HSCRF) is using the IVIS Spectrum
imaging system to speed the development of more effective therapeutic
treatments for tuberculosis. Research efforts and the purchase of the IVIS
system are funded through a grant to the Texas A&M Health Science Center
from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Tuberculosis currently affects nearly one-third of the world's
population and remains a global threat due to severe and drug-resistant
strains. According to the World Health Organization, tuberculosis is one of
the most serious infectious diseases in the world. Caliper is dedicated to
assisting the global fight against infectious diseases and aiding the
discovery of life-saving treatments.
Researchers at the Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine
and a consortium of leading tuberculosis researchers at Washington
University and Stanford University School of Medicine are actively studying
tuberculosis infections in live animals using in vivo imaging technology.
Caliper's IVIS Spectrum was specifically chosen for its highly sensitive
luminescence detection and ability to successfully image, track and
quantify tuberculosis infections using fluorescence. The IVIS system
enables researchers to visualize the progression of the disease and impact
of therapeutic candidates in real time. This rapid evaluation of in vivo
efficacy allows researchers to quickly adapt efforts and progress towards
effective treatments for the disease.
"We are quite optimistic that this research collaboration will uncover
new and promising discoveries in the fight against tuberculosis," said
Kevin Hrusovsky, CEO of Caliper Life Sciences. "Caliper's imaging
technology has proven to be integral in other discovery efforts for finding
new ways and treatments to combat infectious disease. This is a great
opportunity to exploit Caliper's imaging technology to make a major impact
in this world."
