In Vitro Assessment for Antimicrobial Activity

Eligibility Criteria and Required Preliminary Data

You may request services if you are an investigator in academia, a not-for-profit organization, industry, or government worldwide. You need not be a grantee of NIAID or another National Institutes of Health Institute or Center. However, you must have appropriate preliminary data to support advancing the product you wish to have studied to the requested stage of the product development pathway.

Email invitro@mail.nih.gov to discuss the preliminary data required in order to derive meaningful data from the studies you propose. Preliminary data that may be required include, for example, in vitro experimental results and structure (if available).
