Products
Unit-dose lyophilized beads
Pre-measured unit-dose lyophilized reagent beads designed for single-use workflows to provide precise dosing, faster reconstitution and reduced cold-chain requirements for molecular assays and diagnostic kits.
Small-format lyophilized reagent dots
Miniaturized lyophilized reagent formats intended for point-of-care and constrained-volume assays to simplify workflows and reduce cold-chain dependency.
Reagent mixing and sample-preparation devices
Devices and consumables designed to simplify reagent reconstitution and sample preparation for molecular assays and point-of-care workflows.

Services
ISO-grade isolator-integrated aseptic filling and finishing for vials (nested ready-to-use formats across multiple sizes), with automated handling, segregated crimping and post-fill packaging; syringe and cartridge filling planned for Q1 2026. Includes formulation support of client-supplied bulk drug substance and full release documentation.
Feasibility studies, excipient selection, optimization and production-scale lyophilization for vials, powders, beads and small-format reagent dots with packaging and distribution support; excludes pharmaceutical injectable lyophilization for drug substance.
End-to-end manufacturing for POCT, IVD and RUO kits including formulation, cartridge/tube/chip filling, kitting, packaging, sterilization coordination and custom QC/QA for global distribution.
Assembly and fill-finish for combination products including dispenser filling, injectors, oral/topical systems and co-packaged products, with CCIT and compatibility testing.
Coordination of partner-provided terminal sterilization modalities and integration with packaging, labeling and post-sterilization storage workflows to support release and distribution.
On-site QC lab services for in-process, release and stability testing including method transfer/validation, microbial testing, HPLC, molecular assays, spectroscopy and reporting to support regulatory submissions.
