DSI S.r.l.

DSI S.r.l. is one of the European leaders in the field of immunodiagnostic tests manufacturing. We are a
research-focused company with the long-term microbiological scientific traditions. Our fundamental task is
to continuously apply cutting-edge biotechnologies to benefit patients.

Today the company has a multinational workforce of over 400 employees, including more than 50 highly
educated researchers: PhD biologists, chemists and medical doctors. DSI is one of the major players in the
development of tests for the diagnosis of infectious diseases and hormone pathologies. The
manufacturing facilities are specially designed for ELISA kits production and generating of recombinant
proteins for use as diagnostic kits components.

Main lines of activity are:

ELISA kits for infections (HIV; Hepatitis A, B, C, D, E; Syphilis, ToRCH and others), hormone pathologies and
tumor markers.

Bacteriology - routine microbial identification, which is applied in food processing, water treatment and
public healthcare.

Recombinant antigens (HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV, HEV, Syphilis, HIV, HSV, CMV, EBV, VZV, HTLV, Toxo, SARS,
HHV 8, TBE, Chlamydia), antibodies, and conjugates (HRP and biotin labeled)

Quality Control Materials

DSI offers technical support for all the clients regardless of their location.

DSI’s major advantage is traditionally high performance characteristics of kits, recognized not only by our
customers, but also by PEI, CDC researchers and other independent authorities. Another priority of the
company is top-level customer service: we provide technical support worldwide and constantly improve our
kits, taking into consideration customers' feedback.
