Planet Innovation has onsite laboratories and a team of scientists including biochemists, molecular biologists and histopathologists with broad experience across all aspects of biomedical device development and associated assays and reagent test kits, including:

• Initial concept generation and technology evaluation.
• Development and translation of bench assays onto automated platforms.
• Handling and processing various types of specimens (ie blood, urine, washings, tissue, cells).
• Verification and external validation trials, including human ethics applications.
• Product release into global regulated markets.

We have particular expertise in molecular and protein based assay development:

• Isolation of DNA and RNA from human specimens.
• PCR – Reverse transcriptase, Real time and Multiplexed.
  • Electrophoresis
  • DNA cloning and vector design
  • DNA sequencing
  • In-situ hybridization
  • Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization
  • Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)

Our scientists work as an integral part of the engineering and product development teams to develop highly effective diagnostic solutions.
