Major Northern Ireland tender won by UK IVD diagnostics manufacturer

Medical diagnostics manufacturer Helena Biosciences, working in collaboration with AB Scientific, has been awarded the Northern Ireland regional tender for the supply and delivery of clinical electrophoresis. Helena Biosciences is a manufacturer of medical diagnostics equipment used in clinical laboratories worldwide.

Clinical electrophoresis has been used for decades as a conventional technique to diagnose disease from the separation of serum proteins. Recently, Helena Biosciences has put a huge amount of investment into automation, intelligence and new clinical applications. For example, automated capillary electrophoresis, sample-track integration and touchscreen software have allowed laboratories to process patient samples more efficiently, resulting in better turnaround times. Alongside these developments, the company has expanded the menu of clinical applications, increasing the ‘clinical reach’ of specialist diagnostics on conventional equipment.

Greg Dobson, co-owner and director of AB Scientific, commented: “We are delighted to have won the regional tender for Northern Ireland and we are excited to be working with each of the trusts and Helena Biosciences.” Helena Biosciences’ sales and marketing director Dr Adam Stephenson commented: “Winning this tender is great news but the real work starts now. Total customer satisfaction is key.”
