Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry Advanced Analytical Technology Award and JAIMA Instrument Development Award14/10/2022
DKK-TOA Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Toshio Takahashi) has recently announced that the company received the 2022 Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry Advanced Analysis Technology Award and the JAIMA Instrument Development Award for its development of bioluminescent endotoxin detection device. The winners were seven in total including six of our employees (Satoshi Yawata, Kenichi Noda, Ai Shimomura, Yu Oda, Satoshi Arakawa, Hiromitsu Hachiya) and Professor Akio Kuroda of the Graduate School of Integrated Sciences for Life, Hiroshima University.
This is an award given to an individual or group that has demonstrated outstanding achievements for advanced analytical technology development (equipment development, analysis/evaluation technology development, development of new substances for analysis, etc.) and practical application, sponsored by the Japan Analytical Instruments Manufacturers Association (JAIMA).
The award lecture and award ceremony were held at the 71st Annual Meeting of the Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry during September 14th to 16th, 2022.
Since endotoxin causes fever and shock symptoms when mixed with blood, it is stipulated that dialysis treatment sites must manage endotoxins with stricter standards than ISO standards.By measuring endotoxin activity more quickly and accurately than conventional methods, this device will greatly contribute to the control of dialysate water quality and will also contribute to the development of bioanalytical chemistry. We sell this device in combination with reagents and software.
