UK based specialist diagnostic manufacturer, The Binding Site Group Ltd, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an exclusive, definitive agreement with Rockland Immunochemicals, Inc., of Limerick, PA, to grant Rockland global distribution rights for Binding Site’s line of animalfocused radial immunodiffusion (RID) test kits. The availability of this unique range of products exclusively through Rockland will benefit the needs of laboratory professionals conducting basic, applied, and clinical research in the veterinary, biomedical, life-science, genomics, and drug discovery fields.

Radial immunodiffusion is a robust assay used to determine the concentration of an antigen, or protein, in a biological sample. The estimated $75 billion monocolonal antibody market combined with the growing number of biosimilars is driving increased demand for critical testing reagents, kits and assays. The RID Immunoassay kits are easy to use and incorporate monospecific antibodies in an agarose gel, to provide accurate quantitation.

The combined goal of our partnership is to provide customers accurate and reliable products. Binding Site is confident of our joint success."
