Evaluate Hytest biomarkers in your assay — samples on us.
IVD manufacturers and assay developers across South Asia and the Middle East can request free samples of Hytest antibodies — and selected infectious disease antigens — in six clinical areas. No purchase order, no procurement cycle: start evaluation at the bench this quarter.
Producing biomarkers for IVD in Turku, Finland.
Characterised antibodies, antigens, sera and plasma.
Serving leading assay developers on every continent.
Quality-managed manufacturing and characterisation.
Why Hytest
A raw-material partner for the whole assay lifetime.
Hytest has developed and manufactured antibodies and antigens for the in-vitro diagnostics industry from Turku, Finland since 1994. Whether you are localising production, launching a new assay or replacing an unreliable reagent, the same four things decide whether it works.
Quality you can document
Every catalogue item is characterised so your validation package writes itself: epitope and specificity data, cross-reactivity, recommended antibody pairs and platform-specific application data.
- Recommended capture/detection pairs for two-site immunoassays
- Stability studies and lot-to-lot consistency data
- Antigen standards traceable to the assays they support
Move from development to launch faster
Ready-to-use raw materials and samples in hand now, so feasibility work starts this quarter rather than after a procurement cycle. Questions during evaluation are answered by the scientists who make the reagent.
- Free evaluation samples shipped without a purchase order
- Documentation supplied with the shipment
- Direct technical contact throughout the evaluation
Technical expertise on call
Reagent and pair selection, buffer and conjugation questions, interference troubleshooting and assay optimisation — practical support from a team that has worked on these biomarkers for three decades.
- Support for ELISA, CLIA, LFA, FIA and turbidimetric formats
- Guidance on interference, matrix effects and sample handling
- Assay-development input from feasibility through transfer
A supply partnership that scales
Reagents produced in Finland under a quality-managed system, with dependable supply as your production volumes grow and volume-based commercial solutions for long-term collaboration.
- Consistent performance from feasibility batch to routine production
- Volume-based commercial solutions for scaling manufacture
- Predictable total cost across the assay lifetime
Product areas
Six clinical areas we'd like you to put to the test.
The Hytest catalogue spans more than 1,500 characterised antibodies and antigens across far more disease areas than these. The six below were selected for the campaign because they are where depth of characterisation — epitope mapping, validated pairs, matching antigen standards — decides how quickly an assay reaches performance. Free samples cover Hytest antibodies in these areas, plus selected HIV, HCV and HBV antigens, for ELISA, CLIA, lateral-flow, fluorescent immunoassay, immunoturbidimetric and blood-screening applications.
How it works
Four steps from request to evaluation.
The overview first — the exact ordering steps, including the web store route, are set out in detail below.
- 01
Tell us what you need
Submit the form below with your assay context and the categories you'd like to evaluate. Work email required so we can verify affiliation.
- 02
We ship samples — no charge
Our team reviews availability and ships samples with technical documentation. There is no invoice and no minimum purchase.
- 03
Evaluate in your lab
Run the reagents on your platform. Our scientists are available for pairing advice, buffer questions and troubleshooting.
- 04
Feedback & follow-up
After the evaluation window we follow up briefly for your feedback. Continued supply moves through the standard Hytest catalogue.
Ordering
How to order your free samples.
Because the samples are supplied free of charge, every request is reviewed and confirmed by a Hytest scientist — this is a documented request, not a one-click checkout. There are two ways to do it: tell us what you need, or build the request yourself in our web store. Both end with the same confirmation from our team.
You will move between this page and the web store — bookmark this page first. It holds the campaign product list, the terms and the request form.
Campaign terms
What the free-sample offer covers.
Please read these terms before submitting a request — they define eligibility, quantities and shipping responsibilities. Practical questions are answered in the FAQ below.
Campaign scope
- This campaign is intended to support new and prospective commercial customers in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Türkiye, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
- Academic institutions and universities are not included in this promotion.
Campaign offer
- Antibody samples may be offered for selected products within the clinical areas covered by the campaign. Sample quantity: 0.5 mg per antibody product.
- Antigen samples are limited to selected infectious disease antigens, including selected HIV, HCV and HBV antigens. Sample quantity: 0.1 mg per antigen product.
- Antigen samples can be shipped to India and Türkiye only, because dry-ice shipments cannot currently be delivered to the other campaign countries.
- All sample requests are subject to product availability, customer eligibility, shipping feasibility and internal approval.
Customer feedback and follow-up
- The campaign provides a one-time opportunity to evaluate selected products free of charge.
- Customers receiving samples are expected to provide reasonable feedback on the evaluation results. Repeat or additional sample requests are not automatically included in the campaign offer and may require further review or purchase.
- For further information, please contact Hytest Customer Service at hytest@hytest.fi.
Shipping terms
- Samples are provided free of charge. Shipping, handling, import clearance, duties, taxes and other local charges are the responsibility of the recipient.
