This is the largest immunogenicity conference tracking assay development and validation, data analysis and regulatory considerations.

"Immunogenicity testing is a new market segment for Brendan, and a natural extension to the Company's current customer base," stated Dr. Dunn. "Brendan's advanced analytical software is required for the many challenges in immunogenicity testing." The Company is currently working on its next generation version of its StatLIA([R]) software product, which will make it scalable from a desktop version to an enterprise-wide automated solution for the laboratory and provide easy integration into OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  instrumentation. This new version will enable the company to better serve the growing needs of its customers.

Background on Immunoassay Immunoassay

An assay that quantifies antigen or antibody by immunochemical means. The antigen can be a relatively simple substance such as a drug, or a complex one such as a protein or a virus.
 Testing

Immunoassays are highly sensitive Adj. 1. highly sensitive - readily affected by various agents; "a highly sensitive explosive is easily exploded by a shock"; "a sensitive colloid is readily coagulated"  and specific chemical tests used to detect and quantify extremely minute substances in blood, body fluid and other biological samples, using an immunological reaction. These tests measure the formation of antibody-antigen complexes and detect them via an indicator reaction. Their high specificity results from the use of antibodies and purified antigens as reagents. High sensitivity is achieved by using an indicator system that results in amplification of the measured product. Immunoassays may be qualitative (positive or negative) or quantitative (amount measured).

Immunoassays are one of the world's largest and fastest growing testing technologies used to diagnose diseases, discover new chemical entities and biological products, provide vital data in the development of drugs in FDA FDA

 clinical trials, and assist in quality control of drug manufacturing and drug screening. It is also one of the largest technologies used in environmental testing. Currently, $50 billion is spent globally on immunoassay testing, with approximately $1 billion of that being spent on immunoassay software.
