英國Innova Biosciences?
英國Innova Biosciences公司的核心業務是生物偶聯技術(bioconjugation)—— 即將兩種分子結合在一起形成一個雜合偶聯物(hybrid conjugate)。這些標記偶聯物(標記抗體或抗原)在世界各地的醫院及科研機構被廣泛使用。Innova 公司開發生產的一步共軛法(Lightning-Link?)抗體標記試劑盒系列產品極大程度地簡化了抗原、抗體標記流程,提高了標記效率。同時,Innova公司也提供標記優化和開發更靈敏的免疫診斷試驗服務。此外,Innova 公司也向藥物研發實驗室提供一些相關產品。
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OVERVIEW
Innova Biosciences Ltd’s core business is bioconjugation – the joining of two molecules to form hybrid ‘conjugate’. Conjugates are used in hospital and research labs around the world; they also feature in consumer items such as pregnancy test kits (the conjugate is responsible for the blue line). Innova’s one-step conjugation method (Lightning-Link?) massively simplifies the production of conjugates that are needed for research and immunodiagnostic applications. Innova also offers exclusive services for optimizing the performance of conjugates and developing more sensitive immunodiagnostic tests. Innova also sells several niche products to pharmaceutical research and development labs (last updated October 2008).
MISSION STATEMENT
Innova aims to deliver ground-breaking technologies and services that will greatly accelerate and simplify biological research and development. This will allow Innova to become a world leader in the supply of products and services to the academic, pharmaceutical and diagnostics sectors (last updated Jan 2006).
COMPANY HISTORY
Innova's research laboratories opened in October 2002 at the Babraham Bioincubator facility, close to the historic University City of Cambridge, UK. The company was awarded a research grant In 2003 to develop a number of novel research products primarily for applications in the pharmaceutical sector. In 2006, in response to frustration with traditional conjugation technologies, particularly difficulties in working with small amounts of material and in scaling up, Innova developed and launched its revolutionary Lightning-Link? conjugation system. This dramatically changed the direction of the company’s development and today bioconjugation is our core business. Innova sells innovative conjugation products are services throughout the Life Science sector, especially into flow cytometry and diagnostics laboratories.
