Lab
Vision
Lab Vision now part of Thermo
Fisher Scientific was founded in 1994 as an employee-owned biotech manufacturing
company and acquired by Sybron International in August 2000. (Sybron
spun-off their laboratory products division as Apogent Technologies
in December 2000). Located in Fremont, California (USA), Lab Vision
is situated in the epicenter of high-tech and biotechnology. We focus
on state-of-the-art automation and reagents to meet customer needs.
Lab Vision's acquisition of NEOMARKERS in 2002 strengthened our
ability to better meet the needs of customers. NEOMARKERS was
established in the early nineties by a scientist with over 20 years
of experience in cancer research. In August 2004, Lab Vision' parent
company Apogent Technologies merged with Fisher Scientific.
Lab Vision's ability to offer
unrivaled instrumentation development, innovative histology reagent
manufacturing, cutting-edge antibody product offerings, and customer/technical
support that go the extra mile has made Lab Vision a leader in the clinical
and research markets. The patented* Lab Vision AutostainerTM
has revolutionized automated immunohistochemistry. Lab Vision's staff
of engineers covers all relevant fields of expertise, including computer
software. The Lab Vision AutostainerTM is controlled by a proprietary
software program developed in-house by Lab Vision's experts. As a high
quality, totally open system (allowing the user free choice of reagents),
the Lab Vision AutostainerTM represents a customer-oriented concept
for automation in Immunohistochemistry. (* Patent Nos. 5,839,091; 6,349,264;
6,735,531)
Lab Vision also manufactures
UltraVision detection systems, synonymous with innovative Immunohistochemistry.
These detection systems offer the latest technology and value in enzyme
Immunohistochemistry. The UltraVision polymer systems offer high sensitivity
while, the UltraVision biotin-streptavidin systems offer affordability.
Made from the highest quality immunological and biochemical components,
UltraVision is ideal for routinely processed surgical specimens. The
systems are quick and easy to use. The UltraVision product line is a
perfect compliment to NEOMARKERS antibodies and the Lab Vision
AutostainerTM.
NEOMARKERS antibodies
come in culture supernatant (0.1ml, 0.5ml and 1.0ml), affinity purified
antibodies (0.1ml trial size, 0.5ml and 1ml) and ready-to-use format
for use in biochemical applications and histochemical assays respectively.
NEOMARKERS antibodies
are already involved in major research studies and are available in
custom configurations to fit your unique experimental designs. These
include purified antibodies at a higher concentration (1mg/ml) and carrier
protein-free and/or sodium azide-free formats. In addition, all antibodies
are available in larger quantities for special research projects. Lab
Vision and NEOMARKERS are both ISO 13485 and ISO 9001 certified companies
with over 50 distributors worldwide.
