Virion X Ltd
Virion X Ltd provides pseudotyped virus products and high-throughput screening assay services that help vaccine developers, antiviral drug discovery teams, and public health laboratories evaluate immune responses and drug efficacy without building assays in-house. Their established virus panel covers high-consequence epidemic and pandemic pathogens, and they can rapidly adapt their technology to new virus targets. The company also offers bespoke virus and assay development for research needs not covered by their standard catalogue.

Problem
Researchers developing vaccines and antiviral drugs need reliable, high-throughput screening tools to assess immune responses and drug efficacy, but building and validating viral assays in-house is time-consuming, costly, and technically demanding. This slows down research timelines and increases the risk of inconsistent or irreproducible data, particularly when working with high-consequence epidemic and pandemic viruses.
Solution
Virion X provides a comprehensive range of pseudotyped virus products and screening assay services that enable researchers to evaluate neutralising antibody responses, antiviral activity, and viral tropism without the need for in-house assay development. Their established panel of pseudotyped viruses covers a wide breadth of high-consequence pathogens, and their technology can be rapidly adapted to new virus targets. The company offers neutralisation assays, seroepidemiology screening, tropism studies, and bespoke virus and assay development, all designed to deliver reliable, high-throughput results. By leveraging Virion X's validated platforms and protocols, clients can significantly lower screening costs, accelerate research milestones, and maintain data integrity across their studies.
Target Audience
Primary customers are research organisations across industry, academia, and government, including vaccine developers, antiviral drug discovery teams, and public health laboratories conducting epidemiological surveillance.
