AROTEC Joins AFSBio's Portfolio of Suppliers

by Erica D'Angelo August 14, 2020

We are honoured to have AROTEC join our team at AFSBio! AROTEC are leaders in their field for high performance and exceptionally purified native antigens - which give recombinant antigens a run for their money.

AROTEC Diagnostics Limited has been producing and delivering the highest quality, critical components to the autoimmune diagnostic industry since its incorporation in 1996. Based in Wellington, New Zealand, AROTEC has grown over the years to become a valued and trusted supplier of premium reagents to both IVD companies and research and academic groups around the world. AROTEC is a quality-driven business and is ISO 9001:2015 accredited.

AROTEC specializes in protein purification with a current focus on autoimmune antigens and antibodies. We produce high purity diagnostic reagents with exceptional lot-to-lot consistency. Our minimum specification for autoantigen purity is 90% achieved through meticulous chromatographic refinement and polishing. AROTEC offers analytical (a few milligrams) to bulk (approaching grams) volumes of protein. Product lots can be reserved for established customers and held under storage in our 24/7 monitored ultra-low temperature freezers, free of charge for up to 2 years.

AROTEC products are exclusively of New Zealand origin. Internationally, New Zealand is recognised as the world’s premier source of animal sera and animal protein products by the biotechnology industry. This is in part due to New Zealand’s geographical and biological isolation along with strict border security and agricultural restrictions, offering disease free status for Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), Scrapie, foot-and-mouth disease and numerous other significant animal diseases (as recognized by International des Epizooites (OIE) and the USDA-APHIS).

All material sourced for production of human derived native antigens are sourced from reputable blood donor centres offering full serological testing and traceability back to individual donors.
