About the Company

Alamar Biosciences

Automates high-throughput proteomics for biomarker detection

Alamar Biosciences provides access to a high-throughput proteomics platform built around NULISA™, a sensitive method for detecting and measuring proteins, and the ARGO™ system, a fully automated workflow for profiling hundreds to thousands of protein targets. It serves researchers and clinicians who need to detect low-abundance protein biomarkers with multiplexing capabilities, paying for use of the technology and platform rather than selling a standalone instrument. The core difference from competitors is its combination of ultra-sensitive protein detection across a wide range and an automated, scalable workflow that reduces the need for specialized expertise, enabling single-target or large-scale multiplex experiments. The company’s goal is to advance understanding of protein roles in health and disease, enabling early disease detection and the development of new diagnostics and treatments through repeatable, high-throughput proteomics.
