BD UltraPool HLM 150

BD UltraPool™ HLM 150 enables consistency in experimental results in multi-site and long-term programs by delivering reproducible data across multiple CYP and UGT enzymes as compared to smaller pools of donors.

The new BD UltraPool HLM 150 is the first commercially available large donor pool of 150 donors statistically modeled to provide researchers with a high degree of lot-to-lot consistency for CYP and UGT enzyme activity, and to naturally represent the “average patient” and known CYP polymorphisms.

High degree of lot-to-lot consistency for CYP and UGT activity

BD UltraPool HLM 150 pool is statistically modeled so that lot-to-lot variability represented as coefficient of variation (CV) is < 10% (mean) for the more variable CYP enzyme (CYP2C19), and < 5% (mean) for the key drug metabolizing CYPs (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4). This lot-to-lot consistency is critical for researchers to achieve data consistency for metabolic stability, CYP inhibition and reaction phenotyping assays year after year with multiple HLM lots.

Natural representation of the “average patient” and known CYP polymorphisms

The large donor pool (150 donors, 300 alleles for diploid genes), consisting of an equal donor mix on a per milligram microsomal protein basis provides the best representation of an “average patient” drug metabolism activity. BD UltraPool HLM 150 provides consistency and confidence in the assay data across a wide selection of discovery screening and development assays.

Large lots available for multi-year drug discovery programs

The BD UltraPool HLM 150 donor pool size is prepared from donors where considerable tissue is available, and is manufactured in large lot sizes. This supports multi-year and multi-site programs by providing data consistency between ADME discovery screening and development groups. This donor pool size is specifically designed to serve the entire research organization - from drug discovery to drug development.
