ZeptoMetrix® is thrilled to introduce PROtrol TM, a groundbreaking range of products specifically designed for antigen-based diagnostic methods. These exceptional third-party materials mimic genuine clinical specimens and serve as invaluable tools for assessing and monitoring the performance of antigen-based assays, including lateral flow immunoassays used in the detection of infectious diseases.
PROtrol stands alone as the sole whole organism reference material that provides comprehensive testing data. Each product batch is accompanied by precise protein concentration and TCID50 value, significantly reducing qualification testing requirements. By delivering enhanced reproducibility, PROtrol optimizes financial resources and processing time by minimizing the need for repetitive testing.
Dr. Karuna Sharma, Vice President & Chief Scientific Officer, highlighted the significance of PROtrol in addressing the quality challenges arising from the rapid development of antigen-based assays. “Inactivated, whole organism controls specifically designed for antigen tests empower manufacturers to thoroughly evaluate their assay performance, resulting in higher quality tests available in the market,” stated Dr. Sharma.
The inaugural member of the PROtrol product line is PROtrol SARS-Related Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Isolate: USA-WA1/2020* (PROSARS(COV2)-587). As we progress beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, ZeptoMetrix remains committed to expanding the PROtrol range, offering high-quality controls to assay manufacturers striving to enhance accessibility to affordable and user-friendly diagnostics.
Evangeline Gonzalez, President of the Antylia Diagnostics division, expressed her enthusiasm regarding the launch and expansion of PROtrol, reinforcing ZeptoMetrix’s position as the preferred partner for diagnostic test developers. “As we collaborate with our diagnostic partners, ZeptoMetrix takes pride in the role that PROtrol plays in expanding global access to diagnostic testing, benefitting patients worldwide,” added Gonzalez.
