Discover high-sensitivity, multiplex protein analysis with Olink— optimized for biomarker discovery and multi-omics integration.
Olink leverages Proximity Extension Assay (PEA) technology to deliver high-specificity, high-sensitivity protein quantification. With the ability to measure hundreds of proteins from a single sample, it’s a powerful platform for biomarker discovery, disease profiling, and precision medicine research.

Proteins are direct indicators of biological activity and disease states, yet have traditionally been harder to access than genomic data. Macrogen bridges this gap by combining Olink protein data with genomic insights, enabling multi-omics analysis for more personalized and predictive research outcomes.
SERVICE
Olink
Using Olink panels, Macrogen supports a full workflow from large-scale screening to target identification and validation — helping researchers accelerate protein biomarker discovery with greater accuracy and scalability.

Olink’s PEA technology combines immunoassay precision with DNA-based readout. When two DNA-tagged antibodies bind to a target protein, a unique DNA sequence is generated and quantified via qPCR or NGS. This allows for precise, multiplexed measurement of protein biomarkers — even at low concentrations.
