Expertise in the manufacture and characterization of polymers enables us to offer a range of polystyrene-based uniform latex particles for research, and to offer a custom manufacturing service, all with a very high level of quality and batch-to-batch reproducibility.
LodeStars™
Biomagnetic separation is a mainstream technology for life science and biotech research. With so many new and demanding applications, it is vital that research scientists, product developers and manufacturers have access to top quality paramagnetic particles that provide reliable performance and consistency. Based on Varian's patented technology and experience, LodeStars is a powerful magnetic platform for bioscience and life science applications.
PL-MicroSpheres
PL-MicroSpheres are made by proprietary polymerization techniques that produce monodisperse particles for many important immunodiagnostic applications. Novel manufacturing techniques allow extremely fine control over particle size and chemical composition.
Custom Microparticles
A profound understanding of a client’s needs is fundamental to the development of candidate polymer particles. By adding innovation and value the candidates are modified and optimized, leading to seamless pilot and scaled-up production. The Specialty Particles Group at Varian is a primary developer and manufacturer of state-of-the-art particles for life science and bioscience applications.
