Intended use and specimen
Start with the measurement you need, the specimen you expect to receive and any existing comparison method.
FOR CLIA LABS
Explore a new assay for your laboratory.
If you are developing a new diagnostic assay, start with the target, specimen and workflow your laboratory needs. We can discuss how our EFIRM research platform fits the development work ahead.
Define the assay you want to bring into the lab.
Workflow and capacity
Map sample preparation, plate layout, controls, replicates and operator steps against your laboratory’s requirements.
Evidence and decision criteria
Identify the performance questions and acceptance criteria that would guide your evaluation.

Review the workflow from setup to readout.
Fit the workflow to your laboratory
Our laboratory workflow brings together plate handling, reagent additions and instrument operation. Use these steps to frame a discussion about staffing, run organization and method transfer.
- Set up the run. Configure the reader and software layout, prepare reagents and load the plate for the first electric-field step, followed by washing.
- Follow the assay sequence. Review successive sample and reagent additions, electric-field steps, incubation and washing.
- Review measurement output. Complete the final additions, run electrochemical measurement and examine the results in software.
Plan the evidence for your next decision.
Discuss your target-specific development plan with us, from feasibility questions to evaluation in your laboratory.
Analytical evaluation
Discuss reference materials, controls, precision, detection limits, interference and matrix effects.
Method transfer
Review the protocol, instrument settings, data interpretation and reproducibility questions for your receiving laboratory.
Responsibilities and next steps
Identify your team’s assay, validation and workflow needs alongside the platform configuration and support to discuss with us.
