CSIR-CDRI : Cancer Screening Information
A.Criteria to be met by the Standardized Extracts /Purified compounds sent for Screening
  1. We do not accept crude extracts for screening.
  2. The supplier should ensure adequate amount required for carrying out all screening tests and the appropriate mode of shipment of the standardized extracts/ purified compounds to us.
  3. Solubility of the compounds should either be in water, Ethanol or DMSO.
  4. Purity of the compounds must be ascertained (HPLC Method).
  5. The Molecular weight of Compounds should preferably be < 800.
  6. The Screening Data obtained will be supplied on a CD.
  7. Director CSIR-CDRI reserves the right to accept /decline screening of standardized extracts / purified compounds from any source.
