Blazar® Rapid Virus Detection
Our proprietary Blazar® platform is an advanced multiplex and degenerate PCR technology for adventitious and species-specific virus detection that is in line with current regulatory guidance. The Blazar® platform is a targeted molecular method that provides accurate and highly sensitive viral detection in days. By amplifying multiple targets within a conserved region of the viral family genome, our clients can detect a broader range of viruses compared to traditional PCR methods.
- ✓ FAST - Screen for viruses within days, and release batches sooner incorporating lab automation and digital reporting
- ✓ SENSITIVE - detect viruses, and any variants, down to as little as 10 genomic copies
- ✓ SAFE - fully validated and GMP compliant procedure

- Alternatives to in vivo assays for biosafety testing of biologics
Here we examine the current in vivo methods and explore alternatives which can be employed today. We also propose that while the industry may be some years away from removing in vivo testing completely, a case can be made for removing animal use from well-characterized production systems such as CHO.
