Products
Universal lateral-flow dipstick kit (dipstick format, 100 tests)
Boxed kit containing universal lateral-flow dipsticks and assay buffer for visual detection of dual-labeled analytes (amplicons, proteins, antibodies); dipstick format allows direct dipping into reaction tubes and plate wells for development and prototyping.
Dual-test-line lateral-flow dipstick kit (multiplex dipstick, 100 tests)
Dipstick kit with two independent test lines plus a control line to enable duplex detection of two analytes from a single sample for multiplex assay prototyping.
Lateral-flow cassette housings
Plastic cassette housings compatible with standard lateral-flow strips to simplify sample application and protect strip components for user-facing tests.
LAMP hot-start kits and polymerase formulations
Kits and enzyme formulations optimized for loop-mediated isothermal amplification workflows, supplied for integration with lateral-flow readout.
Nucleic acid extraction reagents and modules
Extraction reagents and modules designed for rapid nucleic acid recovery from swabs and other sample matrices to feed downstream amplification and lateral-flow detection workflows.
Optical lateral-flow reader device
Dedicated optical reader for lateral-flow strips providing standardized and quantitative readout of test and control lines with digital output and software integration.
