Since our beginning in 1978, LINCO Research, Inc. has been devoted to developing assays which meet the needs of scientists working in areas of diabetes and obesity research. This year is no different. We have several new products…unique kits and services, not commercially available elsewhere.

This year LINCO proudly introduces the LINCOplex™ human cytokine kit for simultaneous multi-analyte detection and measurement of 8 cytokines in a single 25 ìl sample. This kit is the first in the LINCOplex™ line of immunoassay products, designed with Luminex technology and to be used with Luminex instrumentation. Our Bioanalytical Services Division is also available to perform these assays for you if you don't yet have a Luminex 100. See our website for details, or call us for introductory offers on this exciting new technology: 636-441-8400.

In the coming months, LINCO will introduce a murine cytokine panel and endocrine panels for diabetes/obesity. Also, these panels will be expanded as we go forward to provide additional molecules important to your research needs.

New diabetes/obesity products include: Human Leptin ELISA kit, GLP-1 (Active and Total) RIA kits, and Amylin and Total Amylin ELISA kits. Later this year we will launch Resistin, Ghrelin, and Adiponectin. These products are available in kit form or, as a service to you, our Bioanalytical Services lab can quickly and efficiently run your samples to generate the data for you.

As always, LINCO continues to offer the Gold Standard products you have come to depend on. Our most recognizable product offerings, Human, Primate, Rat and Mouse Leptin RIA Kits continue to be used worldwide. Other LINCO RIA's include our insulin specific assay that measures "true" insulin and does not cross-react with intact proinsulin or the predominant circulating split form, Des 31,32 proinsulin. Our Rat Insulin RIA continues to remain the premier assay for measurement of rat and mouse insulins.

For over 20 years, LINCO has been developing and performing immunoassays for human and animal research specimens. This expertise is offered to our pharmaceutical and academic customers as an additional support of laboratory projects. Our experienced staff generates data quickly and efficiently while maintaining our Gold Standard Quality.
