Synoligo Biotechnologies and Lumiphore Announce a Partnership to Provide [Time-Resolved] Luminescent Oligos and Assays for the Nucleic Acid Amplification Testing Market (NAAT)

The partnership aims to provide game-changing luminescent lanthanide-based oligo probes for diagnostics and life science research applications.

MORRISVILLE, N.C. and BERKELEY, Calif., May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Synoligo Biotechnologies Inc. and Lumiphore Inc. announced they have entered into a partnership to incorporate Lumiphore's luminescent lanthanide reporter technology conjugated to Synoligo's oligonucleotide offerings for diagnostic tests and use in life science research.

Under the partnership, Synoligo Biotechnologies has the non-exclusive rights to incorporate Lumiphore's technology into future diagnostic tests and life science (RUO) assays. Lumiphore's goal is to bring the benefits of luminescent lanthanide-based assays, known as time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) assays, to the NAAT diagnostic and research market.

"Synoligo is positioned as a market leader in Dual Labeled Quenched Probe manufacturing. This potent and unique synergy with Lumiphore explores the use of lanthanides in real-time and time-resolved genomic applications" said Marc Beal Director of Business Development at Synoligo.  

The patented Lumi804-Eu Lanthanide probe at the center of this technology exhibits excellent photostability, resistance to ozone, and bright/narrow Eu(III)-centered emission at 613 nm. The excitation wavelength is flexible (300-400 nm), and the brightness is insensitive to changes in pH (from 2-12). While competitive at steady-state with standard fluors, the real advantage comes from enabling time-resolved detection. The long emission lifetime (716 µs) can be used to generate ultra low-background, high-throughput TR-FRET assays, eliminating wash steps and simplifying analyte preparation.

"Our game-changing luminescent oligo detection brings new assays into the global NAAT market estimated to be $8.1-billion in 2025 growing to $16-19-billion in 2030. The major market focus has been on infectious disease and has been moving into oncology and genetic testing" said Steve Blose Chief Business Officer at Lumiphore.
