Nitrocellulose Membrane
The development of rapid diagnostic tests involves selection and validation of various test components. Many permutation-combinations are tried before freezing a set of components for a newly developed test. This makes it very important that all the components exhibit high inter and intra-lot consistency.
Keeping pace with advances in detection technologies, mdi thoroughly understands the assay design process and offers a wide variety of very high quality rapid test components.
