Ann: Quarterly Update and Appendix 4C, page-202

we know Merck have a smaller membrane manufacturing facility in Ireland and are building a new huge factory in the US.

"We just broke ground on our state-of-the-art, €115 million lateral flow membrane production facility in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, increasing our global production capacity for these critical products. Once it is fully operational, we will supply enough membrane for customers around the world to create more than one billion rapid diagnostic tests per year."

we are involved in the Merck POC development workshop 2023 in Ireland and the IVD conference in Rome

I find it interesting who is presenting for Merck on POC at the IVD event.

was interviewed in this article

"The team is currently focused on resolving assay preparation challenges such as improving test sensitivity by using europium in place of colloidal particles, preventing detection failures by reducing buffer propensity to denature proteins of interest and developing reference tests to reliably measure kit performance."

what is Ian presenting

"Develop Lateral Flow Assays using High-Performing Anteobind activated Estapor Europium Microspheres"


most of the Merck employees in that article are very high ranking and presented with Charlie.

Anteotech have been thick with Merck in many workshops, seminars and conferences discussing using High-Performing Anteobind activated Estapor Europium Microspheres.

when the US membrane factory comes to production with their billion volume, wonder if Anteotech will be a partner with them ??? plenty of breadcrumbs to say maybe !!!
