IdMOC

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

IdMOC is an acronym for Integrated discrete Multiple Organ Culture (IdMOC).

Definition[edit | edit source]

IdMOC is an in vitro, cell culture based experimental model for the study of intercellular communication.

Purpose[edit | edit source]

In conventional in vitro systems, each cell type is studied in isolation ignoring critical interactions between organs or cell types. IdMOC technology is based on the concept that multiple organs signal or communicate via the systemic circulation (i.e., blood).
