While many PCR assays are developed for research applications there are further considerations for those that are being developed to become diagnostic assays or to be performed in support of: Biologics License Application (BLA), New Drug Application (NDA), Premarket Approval
In May 2017, the European Union’s In Vitro Device Regulation (IVDR 2017/746) went into effect, replacing the In Vitro Diagnostic Device Directive (IVDD). The new regulation is more comprehensive than the IVDD and was introduced to reduce inconsistencies in the
Accelerate your time to market with fit-for-use products which offer the quality, consistency, and documentation necessary for every step of your IVD development and manufacturing needs.
Assessment of critical raw material performance, supply and quality is important to minimize risk. Risk must be assessed and mitigated throughout the entire IVD commercialization process.
Elypta partnered with us to produce the first standardized extraction kit for GAG quantification in bodily fluids for research use. Our contract manufacturing services move Elypta one step closer to meeting growing customer demands for this novel research assay as
Steven J. Oldenburg, Ph.D. provides an overview of lateral flow diagnostic assays and discusses the use of ultra-bright reporter particles based on the unique optical properties of gold nanoshells that significantly increase the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassays.
The recent pandemic has highlighted that strong supply chain management should be a vital consideration for any potential clinical diagnostic CMO partner as the risk of regional and global disruptions are unlikely to disappear.
The life sciences industry operates in one of the world’s most regulated environments. Today, we are facing increasing regulatory requirements and complexity.
For this project, ISO-compliant global facilities and network of supply chain partners were used to provide the manufacturer with a wide range of fit-for-use raw materials and unparalleled supply chain security in order to ensure every need was met for
Cell based assays for cell proliferation (BrdU, MTT, WST1), cell viability and cytotoxicity experiments for applications in cancer, neuroscience and stem cell research.
Gold (Au) nanoparticles have tunable optical and electronic properties and are used in a number of applications including photovoltaics, sensors, drug delivery & catalysis.
The assessment of DNA quality is a crucial first step in acquiring meaningful data from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, and other sources of damaged DNA. Using intact genomic DNA is key for successful analysis of chromosomal aberrations (e.g. SNP analysis
Uses for immunofluorescence (IF)—where an antibody conjugated to a molecule that fluoresces when excited by lasers— include protein localization, confirmation of post-translational modification or activation, and proximity to/complexing with other proteins.
The choice of whether to outsource production of an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) or invest and develop in-house capabilities is a foundational business decision. We highlight 10 important benefits of outsourcing and key considerations that should factor into the evaluation
While the commercialization pathway for IVD devices is complicated, a knowledgeable contract manufacturing partner can save significant time, money, and aggravation by providing design, quality, and regulatory assistance.
A case study describing how Mammoth Biosciences, a diagnostics company utilizing CRISPR gene editing collaborated with MilliporeSigma for manufacturing scale-up expertise and critical raw material supply chain security to ensure a successful launch and long-term success of their novel SARS
