PURCON 1058 Developing a Home User Test Kit - AWARD

Tender for the development, proofing and up-scaled manufacturing of a home user diagnostics kit based on lateral flow or similar technology. A full list of the diagnostic tests will be provided once an NDA has been signed. Purpose: Developing a home-user diagnostics kit based on lateral flow, enzyme assays or similar technology based on existing protocols. The project involves several steps: Proof of concept: Establish suitable assay layouts, reagents and chemical reactions based on existing but not optimised protocols. Configuration of simple tests to show utility and initial investigation into potential designs. Feasibility: Refinement of the assay format(s), establishing working protocols and prototypes in an LFT/pad environment to meet both test performance and cost requirements.
