Burnet spinoff Nanjing BioPoint Diagnostics is interested in novel diagnostics for unmet medical needs especially using lateral flow immunochromatography, with R&D both at Burnet and in Nanjing to help convert promising assays from other formats such as ELISAsContract research opportunities
Development of point of care (lateral flow) diagnosticsResearch Activities
Our major activities are in translational research in diagnostics:(1) the development of rapid, point-of-care and/or laboratory-based assays for the diagnosis and management of infectious diseases including HIV, syphilis, hepatitis and liver disease, gut leakage and sepsis;
(2) commercial development of diagnostics through Burnet's spinoff company, Nanjing BioPoint Diagnostics (PR China), with ISO13485 (2016) certified manufacturing facilities in China, allowing production for registration and sale (eg CE mark for EU and other markets).
