The Jesús Usón Minimally Invasive Surgery Centre, (JUMISC), in Cáceres, is an institution dedicated to the training and research of minimally invasive surgical techniques.
The JUMISC organises an extensive program of education and training in various disciplines for resident medical and surgical doctors, nurses, veterinarians, doctors and surgeons and other health professionals
The research that takes place in the JUMISC is aimed at carrying out studies, comparing minimally invasive surgical procedures with traditional surgical techniques, with a special emphasis on applied research

Toxicology
Standardized toxicological studies in support of the pharmaceutical industry and medical devices industry are developed, which are carried out in conjunction with global regulatory directives.
Species:
The usual strains for single-dose studies and repeated administration of drugs include Wistar rats, NMRI mice and Beagle dogs. We have, at the request of the client, other breeds and species of rodents. As a non-rodent species alternative, we use Large-white pigs, sheep and rabbits.
Routes of administration:
These include oral application (probing, diet and capsules), dermal or intraperitoneal, intravenous injection (bolus or infusion), intramuscular or subcutaneous, and inhalation.
The most common studies are:
Repeated administration studies can be designed with recovery groups and normally include toxicokinetic assessment.
Pharmacology Security
The JUMISC offers all studies and trials of pharmaceuticals and medical devices before the first administration or application to volunteers in Phase I trials:
The customer can benefit from a series of complementary studies to evaluate pharmacological properties in all the major anatomical and physiological systems.
Pharmacokinetic studies
Made up of several regulatory requirements for the development of drugs, these are beginning to become an integral part of advance in drug discovery.
Species: Dogs, rabbits, dogs, pigs, sheep. Roads: Oral, intraperitoneal, intravenous, subcutaneous, inhalation, intratracheal.
Obtaining blood samples: up to 8 samples of blood from a rat, handling the animals without causing them stress. Bio-analytics. Rapid development of the method: High processing samples.
Pharmacokinetic analysis is done using non-linear regression software WinNonlin Professional v. 4.1.
