Biotech and other life science researchers will be able to consult with a team of molecular diagnostics (MDx) experts at the AACC (American Association for Clinical Chemistry) Clinical Lab Expo in Houston (TX, USA), from July 30-August 1, 2013.
The New England Biolabs (Ipswich, MA, USA) NEBsolutions team of experts will be available at booth 4463 during the Lab Expo meeting. The team is in place to direct access to expertise in enzymology, supply logistics, custom formulations, packaging, and kit development and to maximize access to New England Biolabs' catalogue of high-quality reagents. New England Biolabs provides reagents for a variety of MDx applications, such as sample preparation, PCR, RT-PCR, isothermal amplification, methylation detection, and library preparation for next generation sequencing.
NEBsolutions, a dedicated team within the New England Biolabs framework, comprises 110 PhDs, more than half with greater than 10 years of tenure at New England Biolabs. They provide the highest level of support to meet the specific needs of New England Biolabs' OEM and customized product customers. The NEBsolutions team excels at meeting aggressive timelines and offers rapid lead-times. This includes leveraging the capabilities of the entire company to help customers achieve their goals. The NEBsolutions team will work to optimize reagent formulation, function, and manufacturing process, resulting in an optimized product while minimizing cost.
"New England Biolabs has been supplying high-quality reagents to the molecular diagnostics community since 1995," said John Pelletier, director of NEBsolutions. "Through the NEBsolutions team, you gain access to NEB’s broad array of resources, including the deep scientific know-how to functionally optimize your product, comprehensive experience in the manufacturing of high-quality products, and extensive experience in supply chain management and risk mitigation. Our quality-by-design approach ensures product performance and consistency that surpass customer needs."
