Rockville, Md. — January 4, 2022 — Psomagen, Inc., has completed training for OIink® Target and Olink® Explore panels to add them to their service offerings for protein biomarker research. This program trains Psomagen labs to provide high-multiplex immunoassays with a high standard for data quality. 

Olink panels make use of their proprietary proximity extension assay (PEA) technology, which uses antibodies with DNA tags to measure the protein profile in patient samples with high specificity. This has helped researchers make groundbreaking advancements in inflammation and disease studies. 

“This training is a very exciting step for Psomagen labs and our customers,” says Dr. Su Hong, Psomagen CEO. “It is a great opportunity to expand further into protein research and multiomics studies."

Olink® Target 48 cytokine panels focus on proteins related to important disease mechanisms and inflammatory processes. With only a 1 µl sample, researchers gain insights into 45 proteins carefully selected to provide the most valuable insights for inflammation studies. Olink® Target 96 panels offer a larger set of proteins for analysis, also focusing on key disease factors. The service touts high sensitivity and accuracy with very limited sample sizes. 

Olink® Explore panels provide analysis for protein biomarkers and cover many important biological pathways. Olink® Explore 1536 can analyze up to 88 samples at once. 

Psomagen has undergone training and quality control assessments to become a trusted Olink® service provider. This program ensures that Psomagen clients are receiving accurate, high-quality data from Target and Explore panels. 

Moving forward, Psomagen will add additional Olink® options to their services. These additional options will give Psomagen customers additional options for flexible, targeted protein research.
