Blood tests are essential for detecting diseases and deficiencies, from Vitamin D to HIV, diabetes, and heart attacks. The devices for these tests can’t measure biomarkers on their own; they need expert IVD development.

At Biocult, we determine the right reagents, protocols, and documentation to ensure accurate results and a smooth market introduction. We create the optimal starting point, so your device and its users can do the rest.

We turn complex IVD challenges into market-ready solutions. Our expertise, commitment to quality, and regulatory know-how ensure your product reaches the market quickly, efficiently, and fully compliant. From the earliest feasibility studies through verification, validation, and into manufacturing, we provide support throughout the entire product development lifecycle

Our portfolio in the field of IVD product development

Many years of experience have led to a large number of successes. Through our clients we have introduced numerous IVD tests to the market. The end products developed by our IVD test development facility help clinicians to diagnose and monitor diseases and deficiencies. We strive to improve the quality of life for patients, not only for now but also in the future.

At Biocult, we work exclusively on request, developing tests based on your specific needs rather than investing in new products ourselves. We begin with an open conversation to understand your objectives, leading to a clearly defined project scope and strong collaboration.

Once goals are set, we run a feasibility study to check the availability of critical materials, assess technical achievability, and determine realistic timelines and budgets. This transparent approach ensures you know exactly what’s possible before committing to full development.

We partner only with trusted suppliers, such as specialized antibody producers, to guarantee quality at every stage. Our proven step-by-step process has delivered consistent results for clients worldwide, helping them bring reliable IVD products to market with confidence.

Case study: The fast route to the market

Biocult assists where necessary, be it large parties with extensive IVD devices or start-ups with limited manpower. Our IVD product development is based on one principle, which guarantees an efficient yet extremely precise IVD test development. Without exception, we return everything we research and develop back to our clients. That is our promise to you.

Frequently asked questions

What is IVD assay development?

IVD assay development is the process of developing diagnostic tests that analyse biological samples, such as blood, to detect or monitor diseases and other health conditions. At Biocult, we support the development process from the initial proof of concept through to a validated, market-ready assay.

Can Biocult develop a custom IVD assay for my specific application?

Yes. Biocult develops IVD assays entirely based on your specific requirements. We work closely with you to define the project scope, select the appropriate reagents and protocols, and develop a solution that fits your intended application.

What does the IVD assay development process look like?

Our process starts with an open discussion about your objectives and requirements. We then conduct a feasibility study to assess technical possibilities, critical materials, timelines and budgets before moving forward with the full development of your assay.

Does Biocult support both start-ups and established IVD companies?

Yes. We work with a wide range of clients, from start-ups with limited in-house resources to established companies developing complex IVD devices. Our level of support can be tailored to the needs of your project.

Can Biocult help develop an assay that meets regulatory and quality requirements?

Yes. Quality and regulatory considerations are integrated throughout our development process. Our experience with ISO 13485 and FDA requirements helps us develop reliable IVD products that are prepared for the next steps towards market approval.
