Power to your product pipeline

A revolution in assay technology

Production Ready

A ready to manufacture product solution that can be scaled to billions of units per year

Low cost

An accurate, analytical device for the same manufacturing cost as a disposable electrochemical test strip. Readers use off the shelf components.

Flexible

Can be used for any diagnostic assay that applies a turbidimetric, precipitation or agglutination technique. Capability to analyse thousands of potential analytes. Tests can be productised without limits.

Sensitive

The smaller the sample the more sensitive the measurement, better than any optical sensor. Long assay times are reduced to seconds.

Robust

No magnets, particles, moving parts or expensive readers
