OPKA software

Automated Accuracy for Opsonophagocytic Assay Analysis

The Synbiosis OPKA Software is a powerful analysis module designed specifically for Opsonophagocytic Killing Assays (OPKA). Working with ProtoCOL 3 or ChromaZona imaging systems, it automates the measurement and interpretation of bacterial killing zones, providing accurate, reproducible results for vaccine development and immunological research.

Automation

The OPKA Software rapidly analyses micro-titre or agar plate images, automatically detecting and quantifying zones of bacterial inhibition or survival. By removing manual counting and calculation steps, it dramatically reduces operator variability while increasing throughput and consistency across replicate assays.

Precision

Using advanced image analysis algorithms, the software ensures high sensitivity and accurate counts, even in complex assay formats. Its consistent data interpretation provides reliable endpoint determination and reproducible results critical for vaccine potency and efficacy studies.

Compliance

All OPKA results can be securely stored, exported, and documented for traceability. When integrated with ProtoCOL 3, the system supports 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, providing full audit trails, controlled user access, and report generation for regulated laboratory environments.
