What is a “Kit in a Box”?

Nordic Bioscience offers two complementary ways to use our ECM biomarkers. Kit in a Box products put the assay in your hands, while our Biomarker Portfolio offers a full-service option where we run the assays for you.

Decades of ECM biomarker innovation and extensive peer-reviewed evidence support our assays across fibrotic and fibro-inflammatory biology. Nordic’s kits translate this expertise into practical, lab-ready tools for rapid, reproducible results.

Many teams start with kits and scale into services. A Kit in a Box is a ready-to-use manual ELISA that includes the critical reagents and instructions you need to quantify specific collagen-derived biomarkers. Run the assay in your own lab to accelerate feasibility work, preclinical studies, academic research, screening, and day-to-day PD readouts—without waiting on external sample shipments or schedules.

  • Run locally in your lab (96-well format)

  • Optimized for common matrices (e.g., serum/plasma, culture supernatants)

  • Clear instructions and QC guidance

  • Backed by Nordic Bioscience assay design expertise

Kit in a Box— you run it in your lab:

  • Shipping direction: We ship the kits to you; you run, read, and analyze locally.
  • Control & speed: Immediate hands-on access; no external scheduling or sample export.
  • Best for: Feasibility work, preclinical models, academic research, cell culture supernatants, screening, routine PD readouts.
  • Operational fit: Uses standard ELISA infrastructure (96-well), SOPs you control, flexible run sizes.
  • Cost profile: Lower logistical overhead for small/iterative experiments; scale by adding plates/kits.
  • Data ownership: Raw data stays in your lab; integrate directly into your analytics pipeline.
  • A hybrid path is common: use kits for rapid method exploration and preclinical iterations, then transition to lab-run services for larger or regulated phases.

Biomarker Services — we run it for you:

  • Shipping direction: You ship samples to Nordic; we perform the assays and QC in-house.
  • Scale & consistency: Standardized SOPs, QC/QA, and batch control for multi-site and larger studies.
  • Best for: Later-stage preclinical/clinical programs, multi-analyte panels, sponsor/CRO workflows.
  • Operational support: Study design guidance, data packages, and scientific interpretation available.
  • Compliance pathway: Execution in accredited environments; documentation aligned for regulatory needs.
  • Time & resources: Offloads lab time/equipment needs; predictable turnaround with project management.
  • Data delivery: Clean datasets and reports, ready for downstream biostats and submissions.
