strip production
Number 1 supplier of Glucose Oxidase
3. Why use our FAD-GDH?
Not affected by variations in oxygen levels
Optimised purification method - fewer
contaminants, reduced backgrounds = better
sensitivity
Improved performance for hospital based
systems
Good stability
70% of activity remaining after 90 days at
50ºC
Stable below -20ºC for at least 24 months
No additives or animal derived materials
present
“Did you know we also
supply an FAD dependent
Glucose Dehydrogenase
(FAD-GDH)?”
FAD dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase
4. Better sensitivity with FAD-GDH
Our FAD-GDH’s high purity leads to a lower background signal, which enables you to
measure lower glucose concentration levels – resulting in better sensitivity
5. Our next generation FAD-GDH is ideal for
customers looking to develop a product of
greater accuracy to meet tightening
regulatory requirements.
But what makes it so good?
Increased accuracy through improved
specificity to glucose
Higher reactivity, providing a faster signal
Improved stability, enhancing reliable
strip performance
Cost savings, requiring fewer units of
enzyme per strip
NEW FAD-GDH – reduced xylose interference
“We offer a service and
range of products
unique to the biosensor
market”
6. Improved specificity using GLD3
GLD1 GLD3
D (+)-Glucose: 100% 100%
D (+)-Galactose: 0.41% 0.27%
D (+)-Maltose: 0.30% 0.67%
D (+)-Mannose: 4.50% 1.73%
D (+)-Xylose: 12.40% 1.60%
2-deoxy-D-glucose: 43.20% 39.8%
Specificity was measured by substituting different sugars (concentration 200mM) for glucose
in the BBI FAD-GDH assay.
7. Highest quality enzyme labels
Use the highest quality Alkaline Phosphatase and be confident in
the results
Highest activity ALP on the
market: >2200 glycine U/mg
protein and >7000 DEA U/mg
protein
High stability: less than 10%
activity lost over 48 months
Benchmarked data: showing
proven performance against
the competition
8. Highest quality enzyme labels
Be confident in achieving better and consistent HRP conjugation
High isozyme C content
(available above 90%)
High activity levels ~280 U/mg
with some batches achieving
>300 U/mg
Highly available amino groups
for clean conjugation
Planned purchase of
horseradish roots gives a
controlled and consistent supply

The top dotted line represents a high background signal. This makes it difficult to detect low glucose concentrations. Our FAD-GDH’s high purity leads to a lower background signal which enables you to measure lower glucose concentration levels – resulting in better sensitivity.
Optimised purification method - fewer contaminants, reduced backgrounds = better sensitivity
