The Miriad Developer Toolkit facilitates the development and commercialization of rapid diagnostics. Employing MedMira’s rapid flow-through technology, the Toolkit contains components to create a rapid test. The researcher need only provide the capture antigen of interest and the specimen containing the antibody. The Toolkit is an off-the-shelf set of components proven to work together enabling the researcher to focus on the development work instead of sourcing components.
COMPONENTS OF THE TOOLKIT:
Test cartridges with immunoreactive membranes, MedMira Universal buffer, and InstantGold caps that contain dried colorimetric detection reagent.
HOW IT WORKS:
The researcher dilutes the antigen in one of the two supplied coating buffers and applies it to the immunoreactive membrane in the test cartridge, using micropipettes readily available in most laboratories. After a short drying period, the test is ready to use following MedMira’s standard three minute test procedure.
Fully protected by patents encompassing the test system, components and procedure, MedMira and its licensees are free to develop, market, and sell the tests without infringing on alternative testing technology patents. The Miriad Developer Toolkit provides researchers with clear development path to fully commercialize new rapid tests.
