Hyperion offers a broad range of technical and consulting services to government, academic, and private companies.
- Biomarker discovery: We specialize in the discovery of biomarkers in human saliva, but our approach is equally valid for discovering biomarkers in serum and urine. Specifically, we use a combination of Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the initial discovery of biomarkers, an approach that detects a wide variety of molecules including peptides and other biomolecules.
- Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry: If you have a specific task and are unhappy with the quality of the services that you currently receiving, please let us work with you to find a solution.
- LC-MS data processing: We can process large data sets generated from LC-MS experiments using our proprietary biomarker discovery software, helping you identify important differences in chemical composition of samples.
- Pre-clinical studies: Hyperion scientists can help you discover the full potential of your drug or medical device through pre-clinical experimentation. We will work closely with you to develop plans that provide you with the data you need at a price you can afford.
- In vitro cell culture: Experiments using mammalian cell lines are often highly informative and cost effective. Complemented by a full range of molecular biological techniques, our in vitro cell studies using your drug, device, or concept can be valuable in generating important pre-clinical data. If you are considering expensive animal or human clinical trials, consider whether the same questions should first be answered using in vitro experiments.
- Clinical studies: We have experience in human clinical trials and can help you take your discoveries to the next level. All protocols are carefully monitored and IRB approved.
- Quantification of cytokines and other proteins: You can get more information from your samples using multiplex bead arrays. With as little as 25 μl of sample, more than 30 assays can be performed at a fraction of the cost associated with conventional ELISAs. Let us run your samples for you. You'll get your data back quickly and fully analyzed according to your specifications.
- Oxygen and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): Hyperbaric oxygen treatment has demonstrated remarkable effects in the human body including the mobilization of stem cells and modulation of the human immune system. We have performed studies on human subjects, lab animals, and in vitro samples under hyperbaric conditions.
- Wound healing and injuries: We have experience performing studies in humans and animals to address combat-related injuries. Also, we have developed models to study the pathology and immunology of wounds.
- Other expertise: Infectious diseases and select agents, flow cytometry (FACS), microscopy and imaging, histology, toxicology, biofluid analysis, real-time PCR, animal models, and custom experimental design.
Hyperion offers a range of consulting services enabling your company to quickly jump to the next level. We offer expertise in the following areas:
- Working with government agencies: Hyperion has extensive experience working with the U.S. government and can help you cut through the complexity. We can also find suitable partners or establish other relationships to help make your business a success.
- Understanding opportunities in San Antonio, Texas: Over the next few years, San Antonio is positioned to take a leadership role in military medicine. Huge investment by federal and state government in universities and basic infrastructure ensure that San Antonio is going to be a leading city for military medicine. We can help you understand the local environment for research and federal contractors.
