Vizgen and Hamamatsu Partner to Streamline Spatial Biology Workflows

Vizgen, Inc., a life sciences company advancing spatial multi-omics, today announced a strategic partnership with Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., a global leader in optical imaging technology. This collaboration integrates Hamamatsu’s MoxiePlexâ„¢ multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) imaging system with Vizgen’s pathology-grade reagent and assay portfolio, delivering a seamless end-to-end solution designed to bring multiplexed biomarker detection into new translational and clinical research applications.

The partnership aims to eliminate common barriers in multiplex assay development − streamlining validation, simplifying workflow integration, and enabling researchers to focus on acquiring high-fidelity biological insights. By combining cutting-edge imaging with highly adaptable multiplex assays, this partnership will offer a joint solution designed to scale with customer needs and facilitate the transition from research to clinical impact.

“Partnerships like this are essential to push the field of multiplex immunofluorescence forward and bring advanced imaging technologies closer to clinical relevance,” said Toshimichi Ishizuka, Director of the Systems Division at Hamamatsu Photonics. “By integrating our hardware with Ultivue’s versatile chemistry, we’re offering a solution that’s not only powerful but practical for real-world use.”

The MoxiePlexâ„¢ platform offers up to 9-color imaging with high throughput capacity with up to 60 slides per run − designed for high-volume laboratories. Vizgen’s InSituPlex® assays enable rapid deployment of custom research panels with pre-validated biomarkers, minimizing time-to-data while maintaining exceptional specificity and reproducibility. Together, these technologies empower research labs to build and refine multiplex assays with greater speed and confidence.

Vizgen and Hamamatsu plan to combine their expertise through validated InSituPlex panels, coupled with MoxiePlex, as an integrated multiplexed proteomic biomarker offering capable of multi-site deployments for translational research and clinical research applications. Among the first use cases for this integrated solution is the deployment of mIF panels for clinically relevant research on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) specimens.

Rob Carson, Chief Executive Officer at Vizgen, said, “Our partnership with Hamamatsu brings together two technology leaders with the same, shared vision for impact in translational research and beyond. Through uniting competencies in automated imaging and protein assay engineering, we can deliver sample-to-answer insights and together serve more customers in their science.”
