Meridian Showcases Innovative Solutions for Molecular Diagnostics and Immunoassays

By LabMedica International staff writers
Posted on 11 Nov 2024

Meridian Bioscience (Cincinnati, OH, USA) is presenting its innovative solutions in molecular and immunoassay reagents that are designed to simplify assay design, eliminate cold-chain logistics, and improve sustainability. More...

The company is also highlighting its large portfolio of antigens, antibodies, blockers, molecular enzymes, nucleotides, and optimized mixes for qPCR, isothermal amplification, and NGS applications for the IVD industry.

Meridian’s glycerol-free, high-concentration molecular reagents, and services enable the development of ambient-temperature stable assays, eliminating the need for cold chain logistics and ensuring robust and seamless supply chains. This reduces energy consumption in transit and storage as well as minimizes packaging requirements, particularly the use of refrigerant, dry ice, and expanded polystyrene foam. Meridian’s extraction-free, low-temperature molecular solutions streamline workflows by eliminating the need for multiple reagent-based extraction steps and reducing the overall energy consumption required for high-temperature processes. Streamlined workflows with fewer steps result in faster turnaround times and increased throughput, reducing operational energy and resource use. Additionally, Meridian’s animal-free recombinant alternatives for immunoassays (blockers, antibodies, and antigens) can offer greater versatility and reproducibility over animal immunization, ensuring continuity of supply while alleviating ethical concerns.

Meridian is highlighting its recently launched glycerol-free NGS enzymes, further establishing the company as a leader in developing innovative, eco-conscious, and cost-effective components for diagnostic assay developers. Visitors to Meridian’s booth at the show can also learn about the company’s introduction of the market’s first innovative lyophilized Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) library preparation kit. This revolutionary lyophilized NGS library preparation kit, designed initially for sequencing by synthesis (SBS) protocols, marks a breakthrough in stabilizing the library preparation process at room temperature. The pioneering kit can be transported and stored at ambient temperature and contains ready-to-use lyophilized reactions to simplify the end-repair, A-tailing, ligation, and library amplification steps of most sequencing protocols. By eliminating the requirement for cold-chain shipping and storage, Meridian’s innovative kit not only simplifies logistical and environmental challenges but also significantly reduces carbon emissions and operational costs, thereby streamlining the entire NGS workflow.
