About the webinar
In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for saliva-based Lateral Flow diagnostic tests. They are easy to access and use, the collection of the sample is noninvasive and have been well-accepted by patients. Additionally, the accessibility of biomarkers in saliva-based tests makes them suitable for different applications and for the detection of multiple conditions.
nanoComposix saliva-based Lateral Flow assay development platform allows for a single step diagnostic assay by removing external sample processing from the workflow. It can be used with any collection device, is customizable to any target antigen and antibodies and scalable for mass production.
Watch our new webinar on demand during which we will present the use of Ahlstrom polyester grade 6614 as a suitable sample pad for saliva-based Lateral Flow devices. Additionally, we will discuss how nanoComposix (now a Fortis Life Sciences company) approaches saliva-based Lateral assay development and go over the key considerations for success.
