Analyte-specific reagents (ASRs) are specialized components used in laboratory settings to detect or measure specific substances—like proteins, antibodies, or genetic material—in biological samples. They form the basis for developing in vitro diagnostic tests (IVDs), enabling precise identification or quantification of biomarkers for research, clinical diagnostics, or commercial device manufacturing.
These reagents are not standalone diagnostic tools; they lack instructions for use or performance claims and are instead designed for integration into larger test systems. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they typically fall under IVD frameworks, requiring compliance with standards for safety, accuracy, and manufacturing quality before use in clinical or commercial applications.
