Biosense Laboratories AS products

Antibodies with excellent specificity and sensitivity for O157:H7 and non-O157 STEC (Shiga toxin-producing E. coli) testing.

Ionophores (*) are used in the livestock industry to improve production. Horses, certain avian species, dogs, and cats are especially sensitive to ionophore toxicity. (*) Lasalocid, Maduramicin, Monensin,  Salinomycin/Narasin.

AbraMag® Magnetic Beads are superparamagnetic, non-aggregating iron oxide particles (or microspheres) for sample prep, or for capturing / purifying targets such as proteins, antibodies, DNA/RNA (direct, or via ChIP, RIP, or CLIP), exosomes, and E. coli.

Quantitative vitellogenin (Vtg) ELISA kits for detection of endocrine disruptors with estrogenic or anti-estrogenic properties. Vtg is one of the core endpoint in screening and testing for endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) described in the OECD Guidelines for the testing of chemicals, for example: OECD Test guideline 229 (Fish Short-Term Reproduction Assay). OECD Test guideline 230 (21-day Fish Assay). OECD Test guideline 234 (Fish Sexual Development Test). OECD Test guideline 240 (MEOGRT).

Quantitative ELISA kits to detect marine algal toxins such as Diarrhetic Shellfish Poison (DSP), Paralytic Shellfish Poison (PSP), Brevetoxin (NSP) and for freshwater cyanotoxins such as Microcystin (MC) and Cylindrospermopsin.

Strip tests (dipsticks) to detect Microcystins, Cylindrospermopsins, Saxitoxins (PSP) and Anatoxin-a (VFDF) in freshwater samples as well as dipsticks to detect and quantify microcystins in source and finished drinking water.

Quantitative ELISA kits to detect environmental pollutants. The kits utilize the sensitive ELISA technology to detect surfactants, Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB`s), dioxins/furans, melamine and other industrial chemicals at a low concentration without complicated sample preparation.

Quantitative ELISA kits for screening and quantifying pesticides in a broad range of sample matrices. The pesticide kits are used to analyze water, soil and agricultural products. The glyphosate kit has additional unique applications that include urine, milk, grains, rose stems and even potato tubers. The performance of several of the pesticide kits has been verified by the US EPA ETV program, and many of the kits are also listed in the National Environmental Methods Index (NEMI), a searchable, on-line Reference maintained jointly by the US EPA and USGS.

ELISA kits to detect Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) gene products from genes inserted into genetically modified (GM) crops.
