Bio-Rad Laboratories
Products
Partitioned (droplet) digital PCR systems and consumables
Instrumentation and consumables for partitioned PCR that enable absolute quantification and sensitive detection of low‑frequency variants and genome‑edit analysis.
Real‑time PCR instruments and reagent kits
Real‑time PCR detection systems and reagent mixes enabling singleplex and multiplex qPCR with integrated analysis software and support materials.
Automated cell counters (image‑ and impedance‑based)
Benchtop automated cell counters using image analysis or impedance measurement to report total and viability counts with disposable consumables for fixed‑volume analysis.
Flow cytometers and cell sorters
Systems for multiparameter flow analysis, rare‑population detection, volumetric or bead‑based counting and high‑recovery sorting for downstream applications.
Multiplex immunoassay panels and reader systems
Multiplex immunoassay panels and reader instrumentation for simultaneous quantitation of multiple protein analytes from single samples, with calibration and validation kits.
Quality control consumables and control panels
Prepared QC consumables and control panels for routine assay performance monitoring across clinical laboratory testing areas.
