BioIVT, a provider of biospecimens, research models and services for drug and diagnostic development, has added Avian products supporting vaccine manufacturing and virus research to the BioIVT Digital Portal through a global collaboration with the Avian Vaccine Services division of Charles River Laboratories International, Inc. This agreement leverages the BioIVT Digital Portal to provide quick and easy access to high-quality specific-pathogen-free (SPF) eggs and related laboratory products such as virus antigens and antisera, and cells.  
 
“We added advanced biospecimen search and e-commerce capabilities to the BioIVT website about a year ago and the resulting Digital Portal has proven to be a great hit with our customers,” said Cathie Miller, PhD, Senior Director of Product Marketing at BioIVT. “The BioIVT Digital Portal is a very easy to use, intuitive system which allows customers to browse our inventory, view pricing, generate quotes and review orders. The addition of the CRL Avian products will enable vaccine focused researchers to quickly access these products.”
 
“We constantly look for new and efficient ways for scientists to easily access our vast Avian portfolio. Considering the breadth of research products currently available through BioIVT on their Digital Portal, our high-quality products fit perfectly to create a streamlined customer experience for quoting and ordering. With the ease of interacting with the BioIVT Digital Portal, combined with our quality and expertise, we feel that this global collaboration will further support the research, diagnostic and vaccine manufacturing communities,” said Debra Tosto, Executive Director, Avian Vaccine Services, Charles River.
 
Charles River SPF eggs and related laboratory products are produced under rigid biosecurity and quality control to ensure the best results. Charles River avian lab scientists continue to develop novel products to support vaccine manufacturing, diagnostics, and virology research.
