MacroArray Technologies

MacroArray Technologies was a biotechnology company specializing in the development of high-throughput diagnostic tools for allergy testing. The company's primary offering was a proprietary microarray platform designed to detect allergen-specific IgE antibodies in human serum. This technology allowed for the simultaneous screening of hundreds of individual allergens using a single, small blood sample, providing a comprehensive profile of a patient's sensitivities. By multiplexing the diagnostic process, the company aimed to offer a more efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional single-plex blood tests and skin prick testing. Based at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology in Alabama, MacroArray Technologies focused on serving clinical laboratories and the broader healthcare market before ceasing operations.
