● ● ● OUR COMMITMENT

Your kit. Our lab. Better results.

Many research teams invest heavily in validating assay kits from established manufacturers, and rightly so. Switching kits mid-study isn’t always an option when primarily focused on maintaining consistency in your sample data.
But continuing to run those assays in-house means dealing with equipment calibration, staff training, inter-assay variability, and QC overhead that pulls your team away from the science that matters.
The Salimetrics CoreLab+ solves this. We accept your samples and run them on your existing IBL or DRG assay kits within a dedicated BSL-2 lab that has processed millions of biospecimen samples with rigorous, documented QC at every step.
What changes. What doesn't.
Your existing IBL or DRG kits, protocols, and vendor relationships stay intact
No revalidation required — your published methods remain unchanged
In-house testing burden eliminated — your team focuses on participants and data
Results delivered with full QC documentation — publication-ready precision
Dedicated project specialist manages logistics, shipping, and data transfer

● ● ● WHY CORELAB+

Seven criteria that define a high-quality biospecimen lab

01 / CALIBRATION

ROUTINE EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION

All lab equipment is on a scheduled calibration program. Uncalibrated equipment is a primary source of inter-lab variability. We eliminate that risk systematically.

02 / QC STANDARDS

RIGOROUS ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA

Tighter acceptance criteria mean less variability in results. Our standards are among the most demanding in salivary research, and we document every batch to prove it.

03 / PRECISION

DOCUMENTED CV% REPEAT CRITERIA

Duplicate measurements are only accepted within strict CV% thresholds. Samples outside criteria are re-run, not averaged. Every repeat is logged for full traceability. 

04 / EXPERTISE

SPECIALIST LAB PERSONNEL

Saliva is a viscous, variable matrix that demands technique. Our staff train specifically on pipetting proficiency for biospecimen samples. 

05 / HIGH TESTING FREQUENCY

HIGH TESTING FREQUENCY

Processing millions of samples means we’ve encountered and resolved the full range of edge cases most labs will never see.

06 / ACCOUNTABILITY

PROFICIENCY TESTING PARTICIPATION

We participate in external proficiency programs, an annual report card on accuracy. Results are verifiable, not self-reported.

07 / COLLECTION SCIENCE

VALIDATED COLLECTION METHODS

How a sample is collected affects what you measure. We advise on collection method, handling, and transport to protect sample integrity from the start.

08 / (BONUS) EXPERT SUPPORT TEAM

DEDICATED PROJECT SPECIALIST

Every study gets a responsive point of contact, not a ticket queue. Logistical management, FTP data transfer, and shipping coordination included.
