New Products
We are continually looking for quality new products for our customers. Details of the latest additions to our catalogue can be seen below:
 
New products from Hyphen  
  Hyphen Hemoclot Thrombin Inhibitors and Biophen DTI are highly sensitive clotting and chromogenic assays (respectively) for the quantitative measurement of hirudin and other direct thrombin inhibitors in human plasma.
• Use of highly purified human thrombin (alpha form)
• Linear dose response curve (even at concentrations >0.1ug/ml)
• No interference from prothrombin or fibrinogen
• Evaluation of the ‘true’ direct anti-thrombin activity of the DTI
• Reproducable and consistent from run to run and lot to lot
• Cost effective
 
  Hyphen Zymutest HIA ELISA Assays
• Uniquely presented biologically available bound unfractionated heparin improves sensitivity and specificity
• Range of kits to screen and if desired, isotype
• Easy to use familiar ELISA format
• Can be automated
• Split into strips for greater convenience, ideal for low test numbers
• Very competitively priced
 
  Hyphen Hemoclot Quanti V-L
• Next generation assay
• Identifies all FV mutations that lead to APC Resistance
• 100% agreement with PCR
• Quantitative:
  - Only one assay per sample, saves time and money
  - No disruption of results by batch to batch variation
  - No need to establish a cut-off
  - No need for normalisation
  - No overlap of normals, heterozygotes or homozygotes
• Therefore much easier to use with higher confidence in results
 
  Hyphen Biophen FVIII:C
• Chromogenic Assay
• Utilises the outstanding technical performance of the Hyphen purified human proteins
• Designed with highly characterised, therefore reliable reproducible, synthetic phospholipids
• Complies with European Pharmacopea recommendations
• Avoids any factor reagent depletion during assays by using a large excess if Factor X
• Can be used for high and low working ranges
• All of the above make it a highly suitable kit for measuring concentrates, high levels of FVIII in plasma, diagnosis of von Willebrand disease and for Haemophilia A.
 
 

Hyphen Zymuphen MP-Activity
Building on unique research Hyphen have developed an easy to use ELISA based assay for the measurement of Procoagulant Microparticle activity.
• Highly sensitive assay, even suitable for MP as small as 0.1m
• The kit can be used for many clinical applications i.e. diagnosis, prognosis and therapy monitoring

Quadratech CHECK4®FLU A/B    
  A New rapid test from Quadratech for Influenza A and Influenza B viruses
CHECK4®FLU A/B is a rapid immunochromatographic test utilising a dual cassette to test each virus separately from a single specimen preparation.
Running the two tests individually avoids a high antigen load of one virus causing antigen excess and false positive results for the second virus.
Product code: QBX020FLUAB 20 tests
 
Easy Reader    

 

 

The EASY READER is an innovative meter for quantitative measurement of immunochromatographic rapid tests results. The meter utilises a high resolution closed circuit digital camera and integrated software to generate results. The Easy Reader removes any operator subjectivity and ensures the cassettes are read at the correct time interval.

Available Tests:
• Quantitative hCG (serum / urine)
Under Evaluation:
• Quantitative D-Dimer (serum / plasma / whole blood)
Coming soon:
• Quantitative Microalbumin (urine)
• Quantitative Faecal Occult Blood (faeces)

 
Affinity Visulize FIX Antigen Assay  
  • Rapid ELISA to measure FIX antigen (FIX:Ag)
• 70 minutes total incubation time
• FIX:Ag reported as International Units/mL traceable to WHO standard for FIX activity
• Detection limit to 0.005 IU/mL FIX:Ag (0.5%)
• Includes normal and low controls
• Up to 4 assay events per kit
 
Bordier Microsporidia IFA monoclonal antibodies  
 

Microsporidia
Bordier now produce IFA monoclonal antibodies for Microsporidia. Product code 8100:
2 x 0.5 ml anti-Enterocytozoon bieneusi monoclonal antibody, ready to use
2 x 0.5 ml anti-Encephalitozoon intestinalis monoclonal antibody, ready to use
1 x 2.0 ml anti-mouse IgG Alexafluor 488 conjugate, ready to use
Instructions for the staining procedure.

Enterocytozoon bieneusi and Encephalitozoon intestinalis are important opportunistic pathogens. These intracellular protists predominantly infect the epithelium of the small intestine causing chronic diarrhoea and malabsorption in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or after organ transplantation in recipients treated with powerful immunosuppressors.
The most common microsporidial infection in humans is caused by E. bieneusi. There is a high prevalence of enteric carriage of E. bieneusi amongst immunocompetent persons in tropical countries where this parasite naturally persists in the human population. Double infections with the two parasites might also occur.
In recent years, clinical cases caused by microsporidia decreased due to the administration of highly antiretroviral therapy restoring immunity. However, microsporidian parasites are not eliminated in all patients and relapses can be observed. Healthy persons, especially travellers returning from tropical areas and immunosuppressed patients undergoing organ transplantation are still at risk from such opportunistic infections.
