Biochip
Description
Randox Toxicology
Biochip Array Technology is a immunoassay testing platform allowing for the simultaneous multi-analyte testing of a panel of related tests. The technology works by combining a panel of up to 44 related tests on a single Biochip with a single set of reagents, controls and calibrators. Competitive chemiluminescent immunoassays are employed for the Biochip Arrays. A light signal generated from each of the test regions on the Biochip is simultaneously detected using digital imaging technology and compared to that from a calibration curve.
Available across a wide variety of forensic matrices this revolutionary multi-analyte testing platform is designed to allow toxicologists to achieve a complete immunoassay profile in the initial screening phase. With 21 drugs of abuse biochip arrays forming part of our unrivalled toxicology test menu we can detect over 500 drugs and drug metabolites.

What is Biochip?
Available across a wide variety of forensic matrices this revolutionary multi-analyte testing platform is designed to allow toxicologists to achieve a complete immunoassay profile in the initial screening phase. With 21 drugs of abuse biochip arrays forming part of our unrivalled toxicology test menu we can detect over 500 drugs and drug metabolites.
Benefits
Simultaneous Analyte Detection
The multiplex testing capabilities of Biochip Array Technology facilitates simultaneous screening of various drug metabolites from a single sample.
Accurate Testing
Multiplex analysis minimises analytical variation between tests and has a proven high standard of accurate tests results with CVs typically <10%.
Small Sample Volume
Biochip Array Technology requires a small volume of sample to produce a complete sample profile, leaving more sample remaining for confirmatory testing.
Extensive Test Menu
21 drugs of abuse biochip arrays are available and form part of the world’s largest toxicology test menu which can facilitate screening of over 500 drugs of abuse.
Optimum Efficiency
Multi-analyte controls and calibrators and multiplex testing capabilities facilitate laboratory efficiency and deliver a cost consolidating solution for the toxicology laboratory.
Multiple Matrices
Including blood, urine, oral fluid , meconium, vitreous humor and tissue.
