How to apply for our services
You can contact us to get a support for the experimental design of your research project and to define the needed laboratory services.
All requests will be analyzed by ERINHA for feasibility assessment, including analysis of ethics acceptability of the required research.
Laboratory work will be performed at one of ERINHA’s high (BSL-3) or maximum (BSL-4) containment laboratories, depending on the pathogen and the required assays.
Time required for performing the service will depend on the requirement of mandatory licenses (e.g. ethics), permission for the use viral strains for the service, establishment of MTA, etc.
