Biomarker Detection

GD3 specializes in delivering tailored protein and nucleic acid biomarker assays to accelerate drug discovery and development. With a deep focus on immunology, ophthalmology, inflammation, infectious disease, oncology, CNS, and metabolic disease, we provide both custom and off-the-shelf solutions.

Beyond standard human, mouse, rat, and non-human primate assays, our in-house capabilities enable us to develop custom biomarkers for a wide range of species. This unique strength empowers researchers to translate proteomics findings into actionable clinical insights, driving medical breakthroughs.
