Designed to establish the safety and efficacy of the products we develop, sell and patent with the highest quality standards.
Silanes Laboratories and the Bioclon Institute have jointly created the first national network of centers specializes in the control and treatment of poisoning caused by venomous animals. The primary objective is to provide timely and appropriate medical advice to the healthcare community regarding the treatments that must be administered to patients who have been bitten or stung by venomous creatures.
Silanes operates a Molecular Biology lab that implements techniques to develop recombinant proteins, providing services to the Antivenom and Diagnostics sectors to ensure an ample supply of antigens and antibodies for product manufacturing.
Silanes is partnering with various public and private health organizations to work on genomics research, with a focus on identifying genes unique in the Mexican population. The goal is to predict the risk of contracting diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity.
Silanes is currently focused on developing an infrastructure that can handle the challenges of future science. One of the major areas of focus is the field of proteomics, which involves the identification and characterization of disease markers with high diagnostic and therapeutic potential.
What is a clinical study?
These investigations test and observe new methods for detecting, preventing, diagnosing or treating diseases on people, ensuring their safety and efficacy. A clinical trial is another term commonly used to refer to this kind of research.
What is an active ingredient?
An active ingredient is defined as any substance, regardless of its origin (human, animal, vegetable, or chemical), that has the ability to produce the pharmacological effects of a drug. In simpler terms, it’s the substance in a drug that is responsible for its therapeutic effects.
Who can participate in a clinical study?
Volunteers who want to take part in a study of this kind. They typically need to meet certain conditions or requirements in order to participate. Some studies look for volunteers with specific medical conditions or illnesses, while others require healthy subjects.
Where is the R&D generated?
Most of the processes are carried out at the Mexico City headquarters, but our European subsidiary in Spain has access to finance developments with strategic partners in other countries.
What is pharmacodynamics?
In simple terms, it refers to the action of a drug in the organism. It describes the therapeutic effects, site and mechanism of action of a drug in the body.
