AcuDart stands for Accurate Detection of Antibodies using Recombinant Technology. AcuDart tests use recombinant proteins instead of proteins from natural sources. By using recombinant technology, our scientists are able to create DNA sequences that would not naturally exist under normal circumstances and environmental conditions, leading to more sensitive and specific tests.
ISOLATE THE GENES
Pure genes are stored and ready to be cloned by iDart researchers.
EXPRESS THE GENES
The genes of interest are put into a host cell and expressed as a new protein. This is the so-called “recombinant protein.”
PURIFY THE PROTEINS
The protein of interest is isolated and purified, and the non-proteinaceous materials are removed.
SPRAY THE PROTEINS
The purified recombinant proteins are sprayed in precise amounts onto specific locations on a membrane strip.
The End Result
AcuDart tests are clear, precise, and easy to interpret. Competing technologies are blurry, difficult to read, and can lead to misdiagnosis.
