METHOD DEVELOPMENT

During more than ten years, IBA’s Method Development Service has provided assay solutions for the pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and biotechnology industries. Using our proprietary approach to assay method development ensures an optimized bioanalytical method that is tailored to meet your specific needs and is delivered both on-time and on-budget.

Available Assay Development Platforms:

• Radioimmunoassay (RIA)
• Fluorescent Detection
• Chemiluminescent Dectection
• Enzymatic (colorimetric) Detection
• Luminex® 100
• Bio-Rad® Bio-Plex
• MSD® SECTOR
• Cell-based Assay
• ELISA / EIA
• Perkin Elmer® Envision

IBA’s Method Development Service delivers an immunobased method using antibodies that you provide, commercially available antibodies, or for a more custom approach you can enlist IBA’s Antibody Production Services. With the antibodies and reagents in place, IBA will provide results in 4-6 weeks under typical circumstances. Cell-based Assay projects are typically delivered in 8-10 weeks.

As is appropriate, each assay is validated identifying the following metrics:

  • Precision
  • Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLQ)
  • Upper Limit of Quantitation (ULQ)
  • Dynamic Range
  • Linearity
  • Parallelism
  • Spike and Recovery (accuracy)
  • Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC)
  • Specificity

In addition to a quality method and validation in a timely fashion IBA can customize a package to include:

  • Analysis with chemical or biologically derived samples
  • Analysis with universal standards where available (WHO/NBISC)
  • A formal method development report
  • Detailed assay protocol
  • Assay method education and training to streamline method transition into your lab.
  • Reagent/Sample stability
  • Endogenous/Exogenous interferants
  • Establish normal ranges
  • Cross reactivity
  • Correlation with a reference method
