R-Biopharm - Clinical diagnostics and food analysis

The German company R-Biopharm AG was founded in 1988 as a subsidiary of Röhm GmbH in Darmstadt. Today the company owns numerous companies on all continents. R-Biopharm develops reliable products and innovative solutions for clinical diagnostics and food and feed analysis.

Our partner offers user-friendly solutions for numerous applications in the field of clinical diagnostics, including areas such as allergology, autoimmunity and virology. The latter has come into focus especially since the end of 2019. A modern clinical virology laboratory performs various types of tests, including rapid antigen tests, serology or molecular diagnostics, in order to provide the best service to healthcare facilities and patients. The effective use of these diagnostic platforms enables the timely detection and control of infectious diseases that are caused by viral pathogens. R-Biopharm's extensive product portfolio offers parameters and technologies with a special focus on virus that infect the gastrointestinal tract and the respiratory tract. You can choose between different systems to respond to a wide variety of viral pathogens such as test for influenza, norovirus, rotavirus, or adenovirus. Realtime PCR kits for various open platform cyclers, enzyme immunoassays that have been validated for automation platforms, and rapid tests for the sensitive detection of viral antigens in small samples are offered as detection methods.

Only reliable analytics can guarantee safe food. With the high-quality test systems from R-Biopharm you can detect unwanted ingredients or microbial ingredients in food. R-Biopharm is also a user-friendly, secure contact point for the detection of allergens and mycotoxins.

If animals from food production are treated with antibiotics, hormones or anabolic steroids, their residues can also be detected in the meat or milk of the animals. Sometimes these residues pose a health risk for the consumer. To protect the consumer, maximum residue levels (MRLs) have been established, compliance with which is monitored in monitoring programs. Chemical contamination of food is also a health risk. A major source of such contamination is migration from packaging materials. Bisphenol A (BPA) is used in the production of these packaging materials. It enters food through plastic bottles or packaging. EU legislation has therefore set a specific migration limit (SML) for BPA. With the R-Biopharm test systems for the detection of hormones, anabolic steroids, antibiotics and other drug residues in different matrices - from enzyme immunoassays (ELISA) to microbial inhibition tests and immunoaffinity columns, you are well positioned!
