A next-gen biomarker

Why Include Glycans in Your Research?

Glycans are modifiable biomarkers of low-grade systemic inflammation, making them a valuable tool for assessing how lifestyle and medical interventions, including protocols, supplements, and medications, influence the immune system.

Due to their biological relevance, disease-specific patterns, and responsiveness to interventions, glycans hold immense potential as biomarkers of health and disease that add valuable insights to your research.

ACADEMIC AND COMMERCIAL PARTNERS

Our Research Collaborations

We collaborate with leading academic institutions and pioneering health companies worldwide.

Our academic partners contribute to foundational research, supporting the validation and further development of glycan-based biomarkers. At the same time, our clinical and commercial collaborators help translate these scientific insights into practical applications, enabling data-driven approaches to improving health.

WHAT WE OFFER

A Complete Solution for Glycomic Research

We offer validated, high-throughput glycan analysis with expert scientific support, enabling seamless integration into academic, clinical, or commercial research.

A Novel Biomarker for Chronic Inflammation and Biological Aging

Gain access to GlycanAge, a powerful and sensitive biomarker that reflects an individual's state of systemic, chronic inflammation. It provides a unique window into the aging process, often revealing changes long before they are visible through traditional markers.

Multiple Protocols Tailored to Your Research Needs

Whether you require a broad overview of the glycome or a deep dive into specific glycan structures associated with disease, we offer tailored analytical protocols. We can help you select the most relevant approach for your research questions and budget.

Flexible Sample Collection Options

Our methods support various sample types for maximum flexibility in your study design. We provide robust and easy-to-use kits for dried blood spot (DBS) collection—ideal for decentralized trials and large cohorts—as well as protocols for plasma and serum samples.

High-Throughput Analysis with State-of-the-Art Technology

We offer high-throughput glycan profiling using state-of-the-art technology, ensuring high precision, reproducibility, and data quality. Our validated methods support projects of any scale, from small pilot studies to large clinical cohorts.

Comprehensive Support from Study Design to Publication

Consider us an extension of your team. We offer expert consultation on study design, cohort sizing, and ethics committee submissions. Once your data is ready, we provide support in data interpretation and can collaborate on manuscript preparation and publication.

EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES

Key Applications for Your Research

Evaluate Interventions and Therapies

Objectively measure the impact of pharmacological treatments, supplements, lifestyle protocols, or other interventions on biological aging and chronic inflammation.

Track how individuals respond over time to determine efficacy and personalize treatments.

Population Health and Biomarker Discovery

Analyse glycan profiles across large cohorts to identify novel biomarkers related to disease risk, progression, and resilience.

Enable stratification of populations based on glycan profiles to support epidemiological research and precision health.

Targeted Health and Longevity Research

Investigate the role of glycans in specific areas of health, from immunity and cardiovascular health to women's health and menopause.

Use glycans to assess interventions designed to slow aging, extend healthspan, and optimize longevity outcomes.
