Assay Development

The ability to quickly design and deploy high-quality assays is a core competency of successful labs. The adoption of new tests and technology – particularly tests and technology as complicated as those required for pharmacogenetics – can become a black hole for precious time and money.
 
Phoenix improves performance on both of those metrics. We will never sacrifice quality for speed, but our experience helps you avoid mistakes and miscalculations that delay the deployment of new assays. You get to better faster, and that improves both your clinical and business performance.
 
We break the development process into distinct phases that give you the ability to customize our program to your needs. 

---

Phase 1:
​Feasibility

A complete and detailed project plan that includes needs assessment, regulatory review, cost projection, and estimated timeline. 

Phase 2:
​Design and Optimization

Design and curation of assay menus,  acquisition and installation of new technology, and iterative testing to find your optimal configuration.

Phase Three:
Clinical ​Validation

Definition of analytical performance and clinical utility; experimental set-up; quality assurance; staff training; and reporting.
