Metabolism & Endocrinology
Calibrators that don't consistently match patient population biology produce assays that drift. Iron-free and iron-loaded transferrin behave as different proteins and are each uniquely critical to meet cellular iron requirements. Recombinant apolipoproteins cannot match the number of complex biological functions of native lipoprotein particles.
Athens provides native human proteins for metabolism research: intact HDL, LDL, and VLDL particles, transferrin in defined iron saturation states, complete apolipoprotein panels, and HbA1c for diabetes diagnostics.
Our portfolio supports work from cellular-mechanism studies through IVD development.
