Position: European Field Application Specialist
Department: European Sales
Reporting to: European Sales Director
The position requires a technically-oriented and commercially-minded professional with a
good working knowledge of the immunoassay market, who will be in charge of all technical
aspects of our business in Europe.
Company:
Biosims develops and manufactures high-performance analytical tools for life sciences
industries. Our core technology is Dynaxi.
Thanks to Dynaxi, that allows the multiplex quantification of analytes down to the lowest
concentrations, Biosims is opening up a new class of research and monitoring.
Dynaxi immunoassays are designed to foster research projects in the fields of disease
biomarkers, drug discovery, preclinical studies and drug development.
Biosims solutions range from the supplying of instruments and assay kits to the custom
prototyping of specific assays.
Technology:
The core of the Dynaxi technology is based on specific proprietary chemistry that has been
developed in association with an ionization system. In contrast with other technologies, no
light source is used.
By preventing wavelength interference, Dynaxi provides real multiplexing without
compromising sensitivity or target number, while still allowing any number of experimental
combinations.
This new approach makes Dynaxi a genuine breakthrough technology, a rare occurrence in
this field. It provides no less than ultra-high sensitivity, real multiplexing and a wide
dynamic range, all in a one-chip device!
