What Gyros Protein Technologies does
Gyros Protein Technologies AB is a specialty life sciences instrument company headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden, with operations in the United States, that designs and manufactures automated nanoliter-scale immunoassay systems (Gyrolab xPlore and xPand) and a portfolio of automated peptide synthesizers (Symphony/Quartet, PS3, Tribute UV-IR, Prelude X, and Sonata/Sonata XT) under the Gyrolab and PurePep brands. The company's core technology is a proprietary microfluidic disc platform in which samples and reagents are delivered to 15-nanoliter streptavidin-bead columns by centrifugal force and capillary action, enabling immunoassay runs that complete in approximately one hour with up to 960 data points per day and dramatic reductions in sample and reagent consumption relative to plate-based ELISA. Column profile technology provides a distinctive data quality layer beyond conventional plate readers.
The company sells to large biopharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations (CROs), vaccine developers, and cell and gene therapy developers, addressing applications including pharmacokinetics, biomarker analysis, immunogenicity testing, impurity analysis, titer analysis, and therapeutic peptide synthesis. Revenue is generated through a capital equipment + recurring consumables + services model: one-time sales of Gyrolab systems and peptide synthesizers, ongoing pull-through from proprietary microfluidic discs, reagents and ready-to-use kits, and paid custom assay development plus IQ/OQ qualification services. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales with a Certified CRO Partner Program that currently includes Charles River Laboratories, Bioagilytix, Resolian, QPS, Nuvisan, Agilex Biolabs, Frontage, Icon Laboratory Services, and Quality Assistance, alongside a Gyrolab User Zone customer portal providing training, protocols, and a method database. The company was founded in 1993 as Gyros AB, acquired Protein Technologies in 2016, and has operated as a division of Mesa Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: MLAB) since 2019.
