145: Beyond ELISA: The 10-Minute Immunoassay Enabling Real-Time Bioprocess Control with Bruno Oesch - Part 1

Tired of waiting overnight for ELISA results? Serial entrepreneur Bruno Oesch reveals how his groundbreaking 10-minute immunoassay technology is eliminating the biggest bottleneck in bioprocessing workflows.From contributing to Nobel Prize-winning prion research to founding Prionics (the first commercial BSE test) and now revolutionizing immunoassays with Elionova, Bruno transforms high-end science into practical solutions that work for everyday labs.Here are three takeaways from this podcast episode:ELISA - The Lab Workhorse That Still Matters: Since the 1970s, ELISA assays have been a cornerstone of bioprocessing and diagnostics. As Bruno Oesch puts it, they remain the "workhorses of biochemical labs." Despite requiring over four hours of binding and washing steps, ELISA remains widely used for its affordability and reliability. However, its slow, linear workflow calls for innovation.ElioDX - The Next-Gen Immunoassay: While Elionova didn’t invent evanescence, they’ve made it accessible and practical. Instead of lengthy washes, a laser-generated evanescent field enables real-time detection, delivering results in just 10 minutes by measuring signal changes dynamically.The Future of Real-Time Bioprocessing: This breakthrough eliminates bottlenecks in biotech workflows. By integrating real-time analysis, ElioDX enhances efficiency, decision-making, and continuous bioprocessing, ensuring precise insights exactly when they’re needed.As David and Bruno highlight, the future of immunoassays isn’t just about innovation - it’s about making these advancements practical and transformative across the industry.By bridging science and accessibility, leaders like Bruno Oesch play a crucial role in demystifying bioprocessing, sparking impactful discussions, and driving real change in the scientific community.Listen to the full discussion to explore how this real-time approach can streamline bioprocessing and transform your workflows.Connect with Bruno Oesch:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/bruno-oeschElionova: www.elionova.comNext step:Book a free consultation to help you get started on any questions you may have about bioprocessing analytics: https://bruehlmann-consulting.com/callDevelop bioprocessing technologies better, faster, at a fraction of the cost with our 1:1 Strategy Call: The quickest and easiest way to excel biotech technology development.
