FOR CUSTOMERS

EFIRM for research laboratories.

Explore EFIRM96 instruments, EPLATE consumables and software for your research institution or laboratory operating under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA). Use the research-use-only EFIRM (Electric Field-Induced Release and Measurement) platform for target-specific evaluation and assay development. CLIA laboratory certification does not authorize a product or assay.

FROM SCIENTIFIC FIT TO PROCUREMENT

Start with your study.

Platform evaluation

Explore EFIRM96, EPLATE and software as a connected research configuration.

Develop your assay

Build target-specific research assays and kits around your recognition chemistry, sample matrix and analytical objectives.

Procurement & support

Request a quotation and order-specific lead time. Instrument software, training and general technical support are included.

Research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostic procedures. CLIA laboratory certification does not establish authorization for an instrument or assay.

FROM PLATFORM TO ASSAY

Your biology.
A defined development path.

EFIRM96, EPLATE and software provide a platform on which customers can research targets and develop their own assay kits.

01
Define the question
Select the analyte or sequence, specimen matrix, intended research use and appropriate comparator.
02
Design the recognition chemistry
Develop capture and detector probes or other target-specific reagents, and define the electrode and control layout.
03
Evaluate the complete assay
Assess precision, detection limits, interference and matrix effects using suitable reference materials and controls.
04
Transfer the workflow
Document the protocol, instrument settings and data interpretation, then assess reproducibility in the receiving laboratory.

Instrument purchase includes local software, training and general support. Method-development scope is agreed per project. A research plan should define EZLife’s support, the developer’s protocol and reagent work, and the receiving laboratory’s independent evaluation responsibilities. Diagnostic use requires validation for its intended use and an appropriate pathway.

RESEARCH FOUNDATION

Find evidence for your target.

Selected epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) variants provide one example of EFIRM research in plasma and saliva. Other applications require their own recognition chemistry, controls and validation.

Published detection without polymerase chain reaction (PCR) uses enzyme-mediated signal generation. Study results describe the target, sample type and experimental setup in each paper; research prototypes do not establish EFIRM96 product specifications.

AVAILABLE PLATFORM PRODUCTS

Ready for your
next research project.

Existing EFIRM96 instruments, EPLATE consumables and instrument software are available for delivery.

Confirm your order

Larger orders may require contract manufacturing. Lead times depend on order size, configuration and production arrangements and are confirmed during quotation.

Included with the instrument

Instrument purchase includes software for use on that instrument only, training and general technical support.

Develop a method together

For assay-development guidance, we prioritize discussing collaboration; paid support may also be arranged on a project-by-project basis.

MITOCHONDRIAL DNA · RESEARCH DIRECTION

Measure selected mtDNA targets
without copying the DNA.

Published meat-species research demonstrates direct, PCR-free measurement of selected mitochondrial DNA targets after sample treatment.

A defined starting point

Species-specific recognition provides evidence for a particular food-identity assay. It does not establish a validated disease test or performance for every mitochondrial sequence.

New research questions

Discuss selected mitochondrial sequences, variants and heteroplasmy research with a target-specific assay plan. These are research directions requiring new feasibility and validation work.

Build the controls

Assess sample preparation, specificity against nuclear mitochondrial DNA sequences (NUMTs), controlled mixture gradients and independent comparison methods.

RESEARCH PURCHASING

Clarify what you are evaluating.

Before a quotation

EFIRM96 configuration, compatible EPLATE consumables, software, reagents and included accessories.
Target, specimen matrix, controls, replicates and the number of reportable results per run.
Site requirements, installation, training, service, warranty and delivery terms.
Current intended-use labeling and the documents needed for your institution’s review.

96 measurement channels do not establish 96 independently reportable samples per run. Controls, replication and target allocation consume positions; the assay layout determines throughput.

APPLICATIONS ACROSS BIOLOGY

From human biomarkers to food identity.

Explore published EGFR, exosome, antibody, meat-species and soybean research, alongside genetic-variant and protein-assay development.

THE NEXT CONVERSATION

From study fit to procurement.

Start with your priorities. Discuss the scientific fit, practical requirements and next steps with our team.

Define the research fit

Identify the decision your study needs to support.

Bring: Target / variant, specimen matrix, institution and intended research use.
Discuss: Assay availability, specimen handling and comparison methods.

Review the configuration

Translate the question into a proposed instrument and assay setup.

Bring: Expected run size, controls/replicates and existing laboratory equipment.
Discuss: Model, plate/reagent compatibility, software and reportable throughput.

Plan the evaluation

Agree how to assess analytical fit before procurement.

Bring: Non-confidential acceptance criteria, comparator and representative material availability.
Discuss: Controls, precision, matrix effects, evaluation responsibilities and documentation.

Discuss purchasing & support

Confirm a written scope and quotation with the company.

Bring: Site location, purchasing requirements and desired scheduling constraints.
Discuss: Availability, delivery, installation, training, service and warranty terms.

Start with non-confidential information. Do not send patient data, personal test results or confidential sequences through the website form. Confidentiality, material/data access and intellectual property terms must be agreed separately.
