Diagnostic Components

Having the expertise and manufacturing capability to customise fibrous products to meet very specific requirements, Whatman has an established reputation for supplying key components for a wide range of applications.

For today's diagnostic device manufacturers, time-to-market is more critical than ever. They seek cost-efficient business partnerships that yield consistent product performance and quality - at increasingly aggressive rates of development. In essence, they require experienced single-source suppliers with extensive product lines that address the full spectrum of diagnostic applications. That is why so many diagnostic companies partner with Whatman.

We offer a comprehensive family of high-quality, solid-phase media - from sample wicks, blood separators and conjugate release pads to absorbent sinks, sample collection/transport materials and dipsticks.

In addition, our in-depth line of nitrocellulose membranes and our proprietary FUSION (single layer matrix) technology provide proven performance for lateral flow assays.

What's more, our pioneering work in emerging applications - including track-etched membrane and molecular diagnostic technologies - helps companies remain on the forefront of breakthrough diagnostic solutions.

By combining the highest quality standardized solutions with unsurpassed technical expertise and support, we enable diagnostic companies to optimize their product offerings quickly and cost-effectively. We thereby accelerate a company's time-to-market and maximize their competitive advantage.
