Lyme IgG and IgM immunoblot kits (FDA-cleared)
Strip-based immunoblot kits for qualitative detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to Borrelia species using recombinant antigens; kits include strips, diluent, wash buffer, conjugate, substrate, positive and negative controls and documentation.
FISH test kits for Plasmodium (genus, P. falciparum, P. vivax, combo) — FDA-cleared (selected kits)
FISH assay kits for direct detection of Plasmodium species in blood smears; kits include fluorescent-labeled probes (Hyb A), hybridization reagents (Hyb B), wash and rinse buffers, and counterstain; each kit formulated for multiple tests (typical kit size ~50 tests).
Research-use and laboratory-developed FISH panels (Mycobacterium, Babesia, Bartonella)
FISH and related assay kits developed for Mycobacterium genus/species, Babesia and Bartonella offered as research-use or laboratory-developed tests; availability and intended use vary by kit.
FISH kit reagent components (smear prep, buffers, counterstain, probes)
Individual reagents supplied with FISH kits including smear preparation reagent (PBS with formaldehyde), fluorescent-labeled probes (lyophilized), hybridization powders, wash and rinse buffers and glycerol counterstain.
Two-color LED fluorescence microscope attachment
LED two-color illumination unit and custom filter sets designed to retrofit standard light microscopes for use with fluorescence diagnostic assays.
Laboratory accessories (dual-band filter set, staining dish set, drying racks/covers)
Accessory items to support FISH workflows, including a dual-band filter set, stainless steel staining trays and slide holders, drying racks and covers.
