In Vitro Diagnostics Testing

In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are tests done on blood or tissue samples taken from the human body. These tests detect diseases or other conditions, and also monitor a person’s overall health to help cure, treat, or prevent diseases. EAG Laboratories is your IVD research and development partner, for evaluating new materials or early stage diagnostics development activities.

In vitro diagnostics may also be used in precision medicine to identify patients likely to benefit from specific treatments or therapies. These in vitro diagnostics include next generation sequencing tests, which scan a person’s DNA to detect genomic variations.

These diagnostic systems typically include many different types of materials and chemistries, from test strips to reagents to plastic packaging to microelectronic components. The materials sciences experts at EAG have extensive experience with many different types of materials, offering insight into product chemistry and interactions. We can help investigate quality issues, such as product instability, cross-contamination or false positives.

HOW WE CAN HELP

  • Microscopy: EAG applies microscopy techniques such as SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) to characterize thin films, coatings or layers in diagnostic materials
  • Failure analysis: comparing “good” vs “bad” samples to evaluate chemical changes by applying a variety of analytical and physical testing techniques
  • Composition & surface analysis: Analysis of layer structure and chemical composition, evaluation of particle size and composition
  • Reverse engineering (deformulation): Physical and chemical analyses required to characterize product components
  • Consulting & litigation support: EAG maintains a team of scientists and engineers who provide technical consulting, problem solving and litigation support, including expert testimony for patent violation investigations, product liability and other legal issues
