monoclonals. Setting the pace for antibody industry.

Setting the pace for antibody industry.
Medix Biochemica revolutionized the industry by starting the
industrial scale manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies nearly
30 years ago. Since then, we have become one of the leading
antibody suppliers for the IVD industry recognized for excellent
product quality and delivery process.
The MedixMAB monoclonal antibodies are manufactured
in vitro using the Hollow Fiber-technology and serum- or
protein-free culture media. Antibodies are purified by affinity
chromatography and fully characterized ensuring the uniform
product quality of every batch. Our production capacity caters
to even the most demanding needs of the diagnostic industry.
