Agricultural research
The world’s population is continuing to grow rapidly, making it more important than ever that food production remains secure and sustainable. However, the emergence and spread of animal and plant pathogens presents a major threat to food safety. Discover why early detection of infectious plant and animal diseases is vital for preventing further loss of agricultural resources and minimizing the economic impact.
Find solutionsAssay development
Assays offer scientists powerful tools for clinical and diagnostic research. These investigative procedures enable researchers to identify and measure the amount of a specific substance or evaluate the effects of a compound on a target biological process. The resulting data can then further essential advancements in life science research such as the discovery and evaluation of novel therapeutics, identification and tracking of infectious diseases, or diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
