Olink Bioscience
Description of Organisation
Olink Bioscience is commercializing cutting-edge technologies for analysis of proteins and nucleic acids. These novel tools enable researchers to see further into biology revealing new insights into basic science, drug development, and diagnostics. The company’s proprietary product lines include: Duolink®, enabling researchers in academia and the pharmaceutical industry to visualize and accurately quantify individual proteins, their interactions and modifications, in unmodified cells and tissues; and Proseek®, an open assay development reagent kit for analyzing proteins in only 1 μl of serum or plasma sample with high sensitivity. Proseek is available both as a single protein assay and a multiplexed protein assay, the latter currently available as a Biomarker Discovery Service.
Our products are available worldwide through Olink Bioscience and a network of distributors. Olink’s molecular technologies are also commercialized through out-licensing to industry leading partners such as Affymetrix, Life Technologies, and through the spin-out companies Halo Genomics (Now Agilent Inc.) and Qlinea. Olink Bioscience was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden
