In our best practices blog, we explore how lateral flow assay design affects test performance. Read on to gain a deeper understanding of the development process, enabling you to streamline the ...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests were the first available for spotting the coronavirus. They work by detecting the virus’s genetic material, and are very accurate. Then came rapid tests, also ...

Lateral flow assays, also called immunochromatographic assays, identify or measure biomolecules in intricate samples like blood, saliva, urine, or other fluids to diagnose numerous medical conditions.

Specifically, the team is hoping to create seaweed-based housings to replace traditional petroleum plastics without changing the way such diagnostic lateral flow tests work. To accomplish this, the ...
