iLite the way

Luciferase Reporter Assays

Svar’s functional cell-based bioassays use our proprietary iLite® technology, a cleverly engineered system with target-induced reporter gene readout. They offer ease of use and robustness and can be developed for virtually any pharmaceutical target. Most of our cell-based reporter-gene assays come with a secondary reporter gene that acts as an internal control, compensating for differences in cell number and matrix effects.

iLite Cell-Based Reporter Gene Assays

We offer iLite cell-based reporter gene assays for a wide range of targets or custom-made for your target of choice. Regardless of what assay you select, you will get:

  • High sensitivity and large dynamic range
  • "Assay-ready" format for rapid and convenient use
  • Reproducible and biologically relevant results  
  • Reduced assay variability and higher reproducibility compared to cells in culture
