Novel platform has potential to detect many disease-related biomarkers in just one test Kumar Jeetendra | April 28, 2021 Most conventional molecular diagnostics usually detect only one disease-related biomarker. Fantastic examples are the PCR tests now used to diagnose COVID-19 by detecting a particular sequence from SARS-CoV-2. Such so-called singleplex methods give reliable results because they are”calibrated” to a single biomarker. However, determining whether a patient is infected with a new SARS-CoV-2 version or …
New COVID-19 testing innovation is a less expensive, quicker choice to tube-based RT-PCR tests Kumar Jeetendra | May 18, 2021 Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain shortages of reagents and test kits have restricted the rapid expansion of clinical testing required to contain the virus. Its accuracy was 100 percent predictive in clinical trials, researchers explain in The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics, published by Elsevier. Sensitivity is critical for early detection of COVID-19 infection where …
Unlocking Precision:The Power of the 96-Well Plate in Modern Lab Science Kumar Jeetendra | July 11, 2025 In modern molecular diagnostic laboratories, no other tool compares to the ease of use, precision, and multiplicity offered by the 96-well plates. They have stood the test of time and continue to be used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), high-throughput screening, PCR amplification, and even in cell cultures because of their ability to perform simultaneous …
The 96-Well Plate: Small Format, Big Role in Indian Pharma and Diagnostics Kumar Jeetendra | July 11, 2025 The pharmaceutical and diagnostic industries value precision, pacing, and scalability of processes. Central to this revolution is the 96-well plate which is one of the smallest tools that has globally, and in India, transformed high-throughput science. The 96-Well Plate: A Small Tool Powering Big Breakthroughs in Indian Pharma and Diagnostics What is a 96-well plate? …
