Where to Find IUL's MedIUL Lateral Flow Test Readers for IVD

Updated

MedIUL is IUL's division for lateral flow test readers used in in-vitro diagnostics (IVD), and the entry point is the MedIUL section linked from the IUL Instruments homepage. As of the site's current content, that division is marked "Coming Soon," so the page functions as a product-line signpost rather than a live catalog with specifications or ordering. If you need a reader now, the iPeak® family under IUL's lateral flow readers is the part of the portfolio that is presented as available.

How to reach the MedIUL entry point

  1. Open iul-instruments.com.
  2. Go to the section describing IUL's two main divisions: microbiology lab solutions and lateral flow readers.
  3. Select the MedIUL link, labeled "Lateral Flow Test Readers for in-vitro diagnostics (IVD)."
  4. Expect a "Coming Soon" status rather than a product list — the page confirms the business line exists but does not yet publish models, specs, or availability dates.

The same homepage block also lists OEM as a separate division ("Original Equipment Manufacturer"), which is the route to follow if your interest in MedIUL is about adapting or building a reader for your own assay rather than buying a catalog instrument.

What the site confirms about MedIUL

Item What the page states

Company positioning Two main divisions: microbiology lab solutions and lateral flow readers

Because the status is "Coming Soon," treat any assumption about specific reader models, cassette formats, or regulatory clearances as unconfirmed until IUL publishes them.

The available alternative: iPeak® readers

If you are evaluating IUL for lateral flow reading today, the iPeak® line is where the site gives concrete product information:

  • iPeak® — the base lateral flow reader platform.
  • iPeak® Plus — a colorimetric lateral flow reader for large cassettes, supporting up to 7 lines in one strip and up to 5 strips in one cassette.
  • iPeak® Europium — a lateral flow reader for fluorescence-labeled lateral flow tests.

This split matters for a purchasing decision: iPeak® Plus is described around colorimetric large-cassette workflows, while iPeak® Europium is described around fluorescence labeling. Match the reader to your assay's label type and cassette format first, then confirm the current model list with IUL directly.

Practical next steps

  • If you need an IVD reader now: start from the iPeak® pages and confirm with IUL which model fits your label type and cassette size.
  • If you specifically want MedIUL: use the MedIUL entry as a status check, and ask IUL for a timeline — the page itself does not give one.
  • If you want a customized or OEM reader: go through the OEM division, which is explicitly framed as project collaboration rather than off-the-shelf sales.
  • If you want to see the technology in person: the site lists IUL appearances including ARABLAB 2026 (October 26–28, Dubai World Trade Centre, stand SSH3-C62) and a Lunch & Learn on AI and automation in the microbiology lab (14 October 2026, Leonberg, Germany), both with sign-up or meeting-booking links.

One caveat on the site's "Activate Free Trial" button for SphereFlash® AI Colony Counting Software: that trial applies to the colony counting software, not to MedIUL or the iPeak® readers. Do not read it as a trial offer for the lateral flow line.
