SomaLogic, Inc., a leader in proteomics technology, announced today that Biostar Technology Limited will be the company’s first authorized site in China to offer the 7,000-plex SomaScan® Assay and provide SomaScan data to their customers.
“We are delighted to be partnering with SomaLogic to expand the company’s global reach in Asia by providing their next-generation proteomics offering and establishing the first SomaLogic authorized site in Shanghai,” said founding Chief Executive Officer of Biostar and AccuraMed Steven Qiu. “We believe this partnership with SomaLogic will enable customers in China to make use of the SomaScan Assay as a powerful tool to study the mechanisms underlying the physiological and pathological processes in disease areas like cardiovascular and liver diseases, cancer and diabetes.”
Founded in 2006, Biostar Technology Limited is a leading technology supplier in the field of life science and translational medicine in China where the company has more than 1,000 customers in academic research, biopharma, clinical translational and in vitro diagnostics. Biostar will now be the first in the nation to offer SomaLogic’s proteomics technology.
