Mologic and Alamar team up to fight future threats from Covid

Mologic in Bedford UK and Maine in the US and Alamar Biosciences in California are partnering on the project.

The collaboration will utilise Alamar’s novel antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid (N) protein for Mologic’s future COVID-19 RDTs.

Easy-to-use and cost-effective RDTs are a key tool for controlling the spread of COVID-19, including in low resource settings. Mologic has already launched COVID-19 antigen tests (COVIOS and COVIGO for personal self-testing) based on its lateral flow assay technology, utilising high affinity, paired antibodies specific for the SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein antigen.  Read more
