Collaboration to Provide Services for Molecular Diagnostics

TTP and New England Biolabs, Inc. (NEB®), have partnered to offer solutions to molecular diagnostic technology developers, including comprehensive product development services spanning instrumentation, consumables and reagents.

Focused on supporting customers to rapidly transition ideas into commercially successful products, tHello Luke he services will couple NEB’s catalog of reagents and expertise in enzyme development and manufacturing with TTP’s Desktop Biology™ product development and physical engineering know-how, to provide capabilities that allow the delivery of more complete solutions, spanning from consumables and instrumentation through to reagents.

Dr. Giles Sanders, Consultant at TTP, explained: “With over 40 years of molecular biology expertise and the industry’s largest selection of recombinant and native enzymes for genomic research, NEB is the ideal partner for our molecular diagnostics services. NEB reagents are mainstays of the modern molecular biology laboratory and are already essential components of many of today’s diagnostic platform technologies. At TTP, we understand the fundamental steps required to convert lab-based biological processes to a functional low-cost disposable and instrument, and together we now able to fast track more complete product development solutions.”

Dr. Breton Hornblower, Product Marketing Manager at NEB, said: “We were impressed by TTP’s Desktop Biology offering and saw an opportunity to craft a more seamless experience for companies looking to accelerate development of their chemistry and assays toward commercialisation of a product in the diagnostics field. NEB was already committed to developing novel enzyme specificities for incorporation into new clinical and molecular testing platforms. Our customers will now be able to access these reagents as part of these services, along with those of TTP.”
