scioDiscover - Protein Biomarker Discovery

Personalised Medicine and Diagnostic Research require techniques to discover and verify novel and more accurate Biomarkers. We offer a comprehensive immuno-based Protein Biomarker Discovery Service using complex Antibody Microarrays. This platform covers key pathway proteins for various diseases as well as secreted proteins and was successfully applied in a variety of biomedical studies. The potential of our platform is underlined by the successful discovery of 4 innovative biomarker signatures.

Due to the fully immuno-based workflow a major platform change is not required for further development and therefore can decrease attrition rates of biomarker candidates. With more than 10 years of experience Sciomics is the ideal partner for Protein Biomarker Discovery and Verification. 

 

 

Biomarker Discovery for:

  • Diagnosis
  • Differential Diagnosis
  • Prognosis
  • Therapy Stratification / Drug Response Prediction
  • Companion Diagnostics

 

Features:

  • Design of appropriate study layout
  • Protein Extraction & Purification
  • Protein Quantification
  • Protein Labelling with high performance fluorescent dyes
  • Fully-automated array incubation and handling 
  • Array scanning, data acquisition and spot recognition
  • Data analysis according to your requirements
  • Individual study report

 

Key advantages:

  • Low sample consumption 
  • Investigation of human and murine samples*
  • Fast turnaround time, as low as two weeks**
  • No need for laborious depletion or fractionation of your samples
  • High sensitivity (as sensitive as an ELISA or better)
  • High reproducibility (CV < 10%)
  • Various sample types can be investigated
    • Serum / Plasma
    • Tissue
    • Cell culture
    • Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
  • Verification and clinical validation without major platform change
  • Parallel Verification of multiple Biomarker Candidates with Custom Antibody Arrays

* Antibody array is designed to target human proteins. Due to a high sequence homology of vast majority of proteins it was often successfully applied to study murine, rat and ovine models as well  [Thorenz A. et al. (2018), Peiro J. et al. (2018), Reichman H. et al. (2019), Raquel F. et al. (2020)].

New article | Rapid Diagnostic Platform for Personalized Vitamin B6 Detection in Erythrocytes

| July 2023 | New Article: Fiedler et al. developed a novel methodology for vitamin B6 diagnostics. We supported the project by the production of custom antibody microarray targeting signature human PLP-DE and testing respective samples.

New article | Biomarkers for canine mammary neoplasia

| Mai 2023 | New Article: Galadima et al. used the scioCD assay to analyse canine blood samples in the context of mammary neoplasia. The proteins CD20, CD45RA and CD99 were found at altered levels. The findings were validated by Western Blotting and are suggested as novel serum biomarkers.

Testimonials

Dr. Matthew Wright

Chief Scientific Officer, Kinarus Therapeutics AG, Basel, Switzerland

"We are a small biotech company without our own wet labs. Sciomics recommended a UK CRO that performed cell culture experiments for our studies. Sciomics seamlessly coordinated the transfer of the biologic materials to their facility and performed the scioCD panel to characterize cell surface markers and cytokines in cell lines treated with our small molecule drug candidates. The Sciomics data were instrumental in supporting our IP protection strategy. Their advice was very helpful and they worked with us to extract the most out of the data. We are very satisfied and highly recommend the Sciomics platform and the team."
