AtheroAbzymeTM ELISA (from Cambridge Theranostics) - this test is used for identifying the risk of developing diseases caused by the oxidation of lipids due to the presence of active ALOA (Atherogenic Lipid-Oxidising Antibodies). This test can also be used for monitoring patients who were treated with anti-ALOA.
5. CancerTYPE ID® (from bioTheranostics) - a molecular diagnostic test for the determination of tumor site of origin using differential expression of 92 genes.
6. Breast Cancer IndexSM- (from bioTheranostics) - a prognostic biomarker based test for the quantitative assessment of the likelihood of distant recurrence in estrogen receptor-positive, lymph node-negative breast cancer patients.
7. PRÉCISSM Precision Medicine (from bioTheranostics) - biomarker profiling based test for the detection of clinically relevant tumor biomarkers for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer.
11. CVDefine® kit: ELISA based immunoassay kit for the early detection of lesions in the artery wall caused by inflammation (from Athera Biotechnologies AB).
12. Aetiological diagnosis of AKI (from Bio-inRen)- urinary marker based test for monitoring hypertension and antihypertensive therapy efficacy.
13. Acquired risk of kidney injury (from Bio-inRen)- biomarkers based test to detect patients with increased risk of developing acute kidney injury from a drug treatment.
