Seralite lateral flow assay rapid test

Seralite lateral-flow assay rapid test

Seralite is a rapid diagnostic lateral flow device for the quantitative measurement of kappa (K) and lambda (λ) immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs) in serum. Our team designed the portable reader for Abingdon Health, developing the new aesthetics and casework design to ensure it could be integrated with the internal electronics and mechanism.

As the number of readers produced will not be in the quantities of a consumer product, we investigated prototype injection moulding routes and worked with a UK based toolmaker to produce the moulded components in a cost effective method in a short delivery time.

  • SERALITE – TEST PROCEDURE

    We designed the reader with a light-tight door that is flipped down to allow for the cartridge to be inserted. During the test, a magnet ensures the door is closed.

  • SERALITE – LATERAL FLOW READER

    We designed the injection-moulded case parts to be manufactured in relatively small batches by a UK toolmaker.

  • SERALITE – ELECTRO-MECHANICAL DESIGN

    The electro-mechanical assembly was designed to accept the lateral flow assay cartridge and assembles within the injection moulded case moulding.

  • SERALITE LATERAL FLOW – CARTRIDGE

    The rapid lateral-flow reader was developed to test for the quantitative measurement of kappa (K) and lambda (λ) immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs) in serum.
