EUROIMMUN was founded in September 1987 and today has its headquarters in Luebeck, Germany. EUROIMMUN produces reagents for medical laboratory diagnostics. In the foreground are test systems for the determination of various antibodies in patient serum in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases and allergies. The company is based on worldwide-patented state-of-the-art production methods. The company is based on worldwide-patented state-of-the-art production methods and microanalysis techniques and is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of medical laboratory diagnostics. The BIOCHIPs are one of EUROIMMUN’s many inventions: paper-thin sheets of glass are coated with cells or tissue sections and then cut automatically into millimetre-sized fragments which are subsequently glued onto slides using a fully automated device. With BIOCHIP Mosaics made from 30 or more different organ sections, cell substrates or defined antigens (EUROPLUS) only minimum incubation efforts are necessary to obtain a detailed antibody profile. In EUROIMMUN enzyme immunoassays (ELISAs) defined antigens, purified using state-of-the-art biotechnological processes. This BIOCHIP technology allows extreme miniaturization and standardization of immunbiochemical analyses. At EUROIMMUN purified antigens are printed in parallel lines at defined positions on membrane strips. The innovative procedures EUROASSAY and EUROLINE developed by EUROIMMUN follow the same test principle as the ELISA methods, with the use of the BIOCHIP technology. EUROIMMUN ELISA are characterized by their excellent stability, simple handling and short incubation times, and they are ideal for automated use. All reagents are delivered ready-to-use and are exchangeable between different lots. EUROIMMUN offers the largest and most differentiated arsenal of enzyme immunoassays worldwide for the diagnosis of autoimmune and infectious diseases. One of the company’s main strengths is its technical expertise. This encompasses not just the manufacture and sale of medical laboratory diagnostics, but also the diagnostic application of the products in a reference laboratory which provides highly differential diagnostics.
