Omega Diagnostics has secured a Scottish Enterprise research and development grant of £1.8m.

This represented a significant contribution towards the total R&D project costs to fund the planned expansion of the Company's Allersys range of reagents for use in allergy in vitro diagnostics.

The project funding will be used to accelerate a growth in menu from 41 allergens to 120 allergens over the next three years to cope with anticipated increasing demand.
