ProAxsis Limited (www.proaxsis.com), the Belfast-based diagnostics company specialising in the measurement of active proteases and other inflammatory biomarkers, today announces that it has appointed Diapharma Group Inc. as the exclusive distributor of its portfolio of respiratory research assays for the North America region.

Based in Ohio, Diapharma has specialised in the commercialisation of products within the research and diagnostic fields in the United States and Canada since it was founded in 1997. This partnership agreement provides them with exclusive access to ProAxsis’ activity-based immunoassay kits for the quantification of the active forms of neutrophil elastase, proteinase 3 and cathepsin G.

Speaking about the agreement, Dr David Ribeiro, CEO of ProAxsis, said: “We’re delighted to have reached this agreement with Diapharma.  Finding a suitable commercial partner for our portfolio in North America was a key short-term objective for the company and we are very excited about partnering with a company that has such experience in the commercialisation of research-focused products in this region of substantial commercialisation potential.”

With over 20 years of expertise in proteolytic enzyme activity assays, DiaPharma sees a natural fit with ProAxsis. Olivia Stricker, PhD, Business Development Manager at Diapharma, added: “We’re pleased to have gained access to the innovative ProteaseTag® technology of ProAxsis and look forward to providing our customers with solutions for protease-focused research at the bench and clinical trials.”
