Education and Training Course in Lateral Flow and Flow Through Technologies
- Learn how to develop and manufacture lateral flow assays
- Customized one-on-one courses held at DCN’s core facility in Carlsbad, California
- Scheduled on demand
- Duration 3 – 5 days
- Theoretical and practical elements dealt with
- Bring your reagents and optimize an assay during the course
Overview
The education program provides all of the basic information and practical experience required to enter into lateral flow or flow through assay development and manufacturing, and can be customized to include elements valuable to sales, marketing, upper management or development planning staff. The program provides a detailed introduction to the principles and practices of rapid immunoassay development. The education course can also be customized to be practical or theoretical in format, and can focus on any aspect of the technology: from conjugations of fluorescent latex, to a more general agenda on the development of high sensitivity quantitative assay systems, which are more complex to develop and manufacture than standard lateral flow systems.
WHO CAN BENEFIT?
Anyone requiring information about lateral flow, flow through or next generation, rapid Point Of care assays. For Example:
- Companies new to the industry
- Companies training new R&D or manufacturing staff
- Development scientists, managers or manufacturing staff looking to improve their skills in development and manufacturing of LFIA’s
- Sales and marketing staff, requiring training on the technology and markets
PRACTICAL HANDS-ON TRAINING
The course is very hands-on. The client can choose to:
- Manufacture colloidal gold
- Perform gold and latex conjugations
- Manufacture an example rapid test
- Get hands-on experience with all of the equipment
- Bring their own reagents and perform conjugations and basic optimization of their assays
