Introduction
NOVEOS represents a significant advancement in routine allergy testing, being the first major technological breakthrough in 20 years. Developed by HYCOR Biomedical, it aims to provide accurate allergy test results, reduce operational costs, and improve efficiency in laboratories.
Purpose and Development
The system was created with input from global labs and clinicians, addressing the limitations of existing allergy testing technologies. HYCOR's mission is to enhance the quality of life for allergy sufferers by accurately identifying allergens.
Innovative Assay Design
NOVEOS features a highly automated instrument with walk-away capability, using liquid, ready-to-use reagents. It requires only 4µL of sample per test, significantly less than competitors, and employs microparticles for high sensitivity and minimal interference.
Technical Specifications
The system uses 1µm microparticles, providing a large surface area for high sensitivity. It employs dual signal detection with fluorescence and chemiluminescence for precision. The design minimizes interference from biotin and cellulose-based CCDs, ensuring accurate results.
Operational Efficiency
NOVEOS enhances lab workflow with an intuitive, icon-driven user interface and touchscreen navigation. It offers a high level of automation, reducing hands-on time and operational costs. The system can run up to 1200 tests per run when connected to a deionized water source.
System Components
The system includes a sample rotor with 60 positions, a reaction rotor with 200 cuvette positions, and a reagent rotor with 150 allergen positions. It supports full traceability through barcode readers and uses fluorescent-tagged microparticles.
Conclusion
NOVEOS sets a new standard in allergy testing by addressing the shortcomings of current technologies. It offers high-quality results, groundbreaking efficiency, and reduced waste, benefiting both patients and laboratories.

Open the catalog to page 2NOVEOS Innovative Assay Design Demonstrates Superb Sensitivity The NOVEOS system utilizes microparticles that are approximately 1µm in size, each smaller than the diameter of a human hair. Each test contains more than 35 million high capacity paramagnetic microparticles (Fluo Bead™), providing superior surface capacity for high sensitivity, minimal interference and non-specific binding. As a result the NOVEOS innovative assay design helps overcome interference and produces accurate allergy test results. 1 µm Streptavidin microparticles with magnetic iron core High capacity microparticles are...
Open the catalog to page 3Significant Reduction in Sample Size Helps YOUR Lab Focus On Testing, Not Sample Management NOVEOS not only runs more allergy tests and more follow-up tests per tube, it also reduces additional blood draws. The small sample volume also reduces the need for test prioritization by clinicians and laboratorians. THE 4µL SAMPLE SIZE IS A BREAKTHROUGH! Testing for more allergens using less sample benefits patients and labs. It may seem small, but for pediatric patients and their families, it’s a major upgrade. How Reliable are YOUR Allergy Results? Getting the right results matters to make reliable...
