Upcon® is a complete system built around novel upconverting nanoparticle (UCNP) labeling technology based on photon upconversion. It combines highly luminescent nanoparticles with robust, easy-to-use instruments, software, and technical support, bringing powerful performance to research as well as life science and diagnostic applications.
The technology uses near-infrared excitation (980 nm) and detects emission at shorter visible wavelengths. This avoids interference from autofluorescence and results in exceptionally clear signals.
Upcon® technology is especially suitable for lateral flow assay applications.
- Sensitive detection without autofluorescence, even from whole blood
- Quantitative detection
- No photobleaching, strips can be scanned several times if needed
- Multiplexing opportunities
