Methods and Studies
eXcorLab GmbH – Laboratory for hemocompatibility and performance tests of medical devices
eXcorLab GmbH was founded in 1983 as a biochemical and cell biology laboratory of the Akzo Nobel company and has been working on membrane applications in medicine and biotechnology ever since.
Our current focus is on conducting preclinical studies, which are crucial for the development of innovative medical products. Among other things, we carry out contract research in the fields of nephrology, dialysis, apheresis and cell culture.
A particular area of expertise in our work is haemocompatibility, an essential aspect of ensuring that medical devices and materials interact optimally with human blood and blood components. Through our extensive research and state-of-the-art technologies, we help to ensure the safety and efficacy of new therapies and products. At eXcorLab GmbH, we are passionate about pushing the boundaries of biomedical research and advancing human health.
