The CiteAb Kits & Assays database tracks citations across hundreds of thousands of life science kits referenced in the scientific literature. ELISA kits form a core part of this database.
The ELISA Kit Supplier to Watch Award was created to shine a light on suppliers making real strides in this space with impressive citation growth.
We used the following methodology to determine the Highly Commended awardee:
- Limiting analysis to ELISA kit products within our Kits & Assays database
- Calculating the supplier with the second largest percentage increase in citations in the previous year
- Excluding suppliers with fewer than ten citations
We are delighted to name Proteintech as Highly Commended in the ELISA Kit Supplier to Watch Award.
Proteintech was formed by a group of scientists 25 years ago, providing a variety of research reagents to support the community. Their portfolio includes a strong ELISA Kit offering, reflected through this award recognition.
