Products

Protein structural biomarker diagnostic test (in development)

A laboratory diagnostic test that detects misfolding of disease-associated proteins in body fluids using antibody capture followed by infrared structural analysis to estimate future risk of neurodegenerative disease.


Services

Laboratory measurement of structural protein biomarkers using an immuno-infrared spectroscopy platform to support drug-discovery research and pharmacodynamic readouts.

Provision of in-house and reference-laboratory capabilities for analytical validation and study-associated diagnostic validation.

Biomarker-based screening to identify and stratify participants for clinical trials and refine inclusion criteria based on structural biomarker risk.

Provision of a fluid-based diagnostic test to assess individual risk of neurodegenerative disease from a small-volume sample; currently undergoing regulatory approval processes.
