Immunochemistry

The Basophil Activation Test (BAT) can be used for the in vitro detection of immediate type allergic reactions and hypersensitivities to suspected allergens.

Autoimmune diseases arise from autoimmune responses to self-antigens, whereby the body launches an attack against substances or tissues normally present in the body.

Calprotectin is a heterodimeric calcium binding protein (MRP8/14), which is present in both neutrophils and monocytes. Calprotectin is released from these cell types at sites of active inflammation.

All assays should be calibrated using reference material to ensure accurate recovery and reporting.

Validation of assay performance is essential and controls should be run with every batch of samples.

A range of ELISA and lateral flow assays for gonadotrophic and sex hormones to aid fertility and pregnancy investigations.

Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted directly into the blood, they are important for numerous bodily functions from regulating hunger to controlling reproduction.

A range of ELISA kits to aid diagnosis of communicable diseases.

Standardised CE IVD marked ELISAs for investigation peripheral neuropathies.

The faecal elastase assay is the preferred test used to screen for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, characterised by a low concentration of pancreatic elastase in faeces. 

Easy, rapid, lateral flow tests for direct use by clinicians at Point-of-Care or within smaller laboratories.

Assays for C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Serum Calprotectin (MRP8/14).

SICKLEDEX® Solubility Test Kit - Assays for Sickle Cell Anaemia.

A wide range of test kits, calibrators, standards and controls for specific protein assays.

Assays to assess cardiovascular, kidney, liver, pancreatic and thyroid status.

Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) strategies are implemented on the assumption that clinical effects correlate better with drug concentrations in serum rather than with dose.
