Host-Pathogen Interactions
The Galleria mellonella insect is a model organism for the investigation of host-pathogen interactions. Importantly, this model is well in agreement with the 3R principles (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement) encouraging the use of non-mammalian models. GalEx, a spin-off of the PAM platform, offers assays to determine the virulence and pathogenesis of your bacteria of interest and tests to determine the efficiency of novel antimicrobial agents.
