DWK Life Sciences, having successfully completed the integration of three industry-leading brands into a single, unified international brand, DURAN WHEATON KIMBLE (DWK), is proud to offer the diagnostics industry a convenient, reliable, and complete solution for developing and producing IVD diagnostic kits. Combining our expertise in leak-resistant plastic containers, dropping bottles and closures, diagnostic vials and other innovative packaging solutions with our capabilities in bar coding, particulate cleaning, sterile processing, and an in-house quality control team, DWK Life Sciences offers everything you need to simplify your supply chain for IVD production.

The advantages of working with a one-stop-shop include improved efficiency and productivity. Your IVD packaging engineers can now work with only one company from start to finish. You can be assured of complete manufacturing traceability and quality control that meets regulatory requirements for in13485 certification for medical devices.

You benefit from the ability to work with an experienced, trusted partner to produce kits to meet your specifications in the quantities you need. Just-in-time delivery means you have the kits when you need them.

“Our customers in the diagnostics industry will quickly appreciate the greater convenience and time and money they can save when they are able to purchase all of their IVD kit materials from a single supplier,” says Doug Harris, VP of Sales and Marketing.

"Having everything available to be shipped at the same time from one source can help reduce inventory needs and avoid waiting time to receive supplies from multiple providers. The benefits are immediate and tangible."

Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.Clinical MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

This year's meeting is being held in Atlanta, USA, July 26th-30th, 2015.In Vitro DiagnosticsIn vitro diagnostics (IVD) involve testing samples outside the body, typically in a laboratory, to diagnose diseases or conditions. IVD technologies include blood tests, molecular assays, and other bodily fluid tests, enabling accurate diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. These tests are essential for guiding treatment decisions in clinical settings. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to find the best IVD solutions; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Molecular DiagnosticsMolecular diagnostics use an individual’s genetic code and gene expression to diagnose and monitor diseases. The technique is used increasingly in the field of infectious diseases and oncology, as well as areas such as coagulation, HLA typing and pharmacogenomics. Molecular diagnostics plays a pivotal role in personalized medicine.
