Bertin TechnologiesBioreagent & Bioanalytical Tools

Bertin Bioreagent is a leader in biomarker assay kit development, production, and distribution for life science laboratories thanks to 30 years of expertise.

Toxicity and efficiency of new molecules and drugs can be determined by studying biomarkers. Any biomarker deserves to have its best-in-class analytical tool which should be robust, ready to use, available worldwide and approved by the scientific community.

Bertin Bioreagent offers more than 40 references of assay kits (ELISA, EIA, enzymatic…) and 240 references of antibodies (monoclonal and polyclonal) targeting biomarkers involved in various fields such as obesity, diabetes, pain, inflammation, or endocrinology. The product range also includes necessary pre-analytical tools and biochemicals to collect and pre-treat samples for future analysis.

Pre-Analytical Tools – Take Care Of Your Samples

While it is mandatory in clinical application, many kits in research do not evaluate in depth the pre-analytical phase (mainly because it’s highly variable). Bertin Bioreagent has a different approach.

In the diagnostic field, it has been known for decades that the pre-analytic phase is part of the process and should be monitored. In Research, especially for new biomarkers, this has been often under-estimated, which can lead to biased results. Bertin Bioreagent strives to offer a complete solution to users of assay kits by developing pre-analytical tools that will protect biomarkers before analysis. These tools contain antioxidant or specific anti-protease or inhibitors, i.e. appropriate biochemicals to secure your sample until further assay.

Reasons to choose pre-analytical tools:

• A comprehensive offer of pre-analytical tools matching Bertin Bioreagent’s assay kits.
• Developed by Bertin scientific team, which benefits from 30 years of expertise in biomarker assay development.
• Collection vials are provided ready to use to optimise sample preparation time.

Biotoxis QPCR Detection Kit

Biotoxis is a qPCR all-in-one detection kit that detects B. anthracis, Y. pestis and F. tularensis, 3 pathogens that constitute the first potential biological weapons causing lethal infection (anthrax, plague & tularemia).

Highly sensitive, this kit is the only one on the market that detects in one reaction all 3 agents, ensuring a rapid response in a context of a global bioterrorism. The Biotoxis kit provides a simple, reliable, and rapid method for detection in air, water, and any biological samples. It is dedicated to CBRN teams, first responders, and R&D labs that work on these 3 agents for a quick intervention in the event of a suspected biological attack. In multiplex, detection limits are 17 copies of target template for B. anthracis, 20 copies for Y. pestis and 49 copies for F. tularensis. All liquid components can be stored at +4°C for 6 months.

Reasons to choose Biotoxis QPCR Detection Kit:

• Sensitive multiplex detection of 3 agents
• Easy to use; master mix, primers and probes included
• Compatible with any type of sample (air, water & biological samples)
• Stable at +4°C
