Anteo Diagnostics, a biotechnology company based in Brisbane, Australia, has introduced the Mix&Go-based AMG Coupling kit for use in diagnostic testing. Mix&Go, a surface coating that serves as “molecular Velcro,” offers a novel, proprietary method for protein attachment to synthetic surfaces.

According to Rachel de las Heras, PhD, head of commercial development at Anteo Diagnostics, the product “creates the surface you want on the surface you have. It enables biological material to adhere to synthetic surfaces quickly, easily, and without damage. It is so robust and so reliable that it can dramatically shorten the usual product design and development process.”

By enabling gentle and secure attachment of a protein to target particles, the kit reduces lab time by up to 90%, according to Anteo. The product results in higher stability, improved reproducibility, and greater sensitivity, helping create more sensitive and affordable diagnostics.
