Assay Ready Kits

Sensitive, Reproducible Ready-To-Use Cell-based Assay Kits for Early Discovery to Commercial Release and Stability Programs

Eurofins DiscoverX® offers over 730 optimized ready-to-use (RTU) assay kits are provided with frozen-ready cells, eliminating the need for cell culture when performing cell-based functional or binding assays with sensitivity and run-to-run reproducibility your programs depend on. These quantitative, robust assay kits use a homogeneous, no-wash protocol, and are provided in various phase-appropriate formats, from basic research and drug discovery through clinical development, and into commercial release and stability programs for potency testing.

Cell-Based Assay Kits for Every Major Target Class

The extensive menu of target-based assays covers a broad range of target classes including GPCRs, kinases, cytokine and immune checkpoint receptors, intercellular signaling targets, nuclear and epigenetic proteins, and other targets. Assay Ready Kits include all necessary reagents to run functional or binding whole-cell assays in just a few hours, including frozen, RTU pre-validated cells, optimized detection reagents, and media, 96-well plates, and detailed protocols.

Need continuous culture cell lines in an assay kit format? Consider complete cell-based assay kits that include the cell line, culture reagents for maintaining the cells in continuous culture, and detection reagents for running the assay. Learn more about Cell Line Assay Kits.

Easy-to-Run Robust Bioassays Simple-to-Use No Wash Assays

Product Types

Eurofins DiscoverX offers several types of highly sensitive, cell-based assay ready kit formats for quantitative results covering multiple targets and mechanisms of action (MOA). Assay formats include eXpress assays, bioassays, cell line assays, and enzyme activity assay kits matched to your research or drug discovery and development phase.

  • eXpress Assay Kits — Suited for research purposes only, simple-to-use eXpress assay kits provide quick analysis and implementation in early discovery phases for screening applications, proof-of-concept, MOA confirmation, and rank-ordering studies. eXpress assay kits are not recommended or supported for use in pre-clinical development phases, including characterization or potency testing in QC lot release programs.
  • Bioassay Kits — The appropriate format to use and implement for characterization, MOA confirmation, detection of neutralizing antibodies, and potency testing in commercial release and stability applications for biologics drug development programs. These robust, easy-to-run bioassay kits provide sensitive, quantitative, and reproducible results. Qualified bioassays have been developed, optimized, and qualified with the marketed innovator biologics or reference standards following International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines to meet market requirements and regulatory expectations.
  • Cell Line Assays – Complete cell-based assay kits that include the cell line, culture reagents for maintaining the cells in continuous culture, and detection reagents for running the assay. Learn more about Cell Line Assays.
  • Enzyme Activity Assay Kits — Ready-to-use, validated screening platform for the development of kinase inhibitor therapeutics. Rapidly measure specific enzyme activity in a simple user-friendly and homogeneous assay format.

Minimize assay development time and eliminate lengthy, expensive, and time-consuming cell culture with quick analysis eXpress assay kits or qualified, MOA-based bioassays that are ready-to-use and ensure robust and reliable performance every time.
