About Bioventix plc:
Bioventix (www.bioventix.com) specialises in the development and
commercial supply of high-affinity monoclonal antibodies with a
primary focus on their application in clinical diagnostics, such as
in automated immunoassays used in blood testing. The antibodies
created at Bioventix are generated in sheep and are of particular
benefit where the target is present at low concentration and where
conventional monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies have failed to
produce a suitable reagent. Bioventix currently offers a portfolio
of antibodies to customers for both commercial use and R&D
purposes, for the diagnosis or monitoring of a broad range of
conditions, including heart disease, cancer, fertility, thyroid
function and drug abuse. Bioventix currently supplies antibody
products and services to the majority of multinational clinical
diagnostics companies. Bioventix is based in Farnham, UK and its
shares are traded on AIM under the symbol BVXP.
