NanoDetection Technology's beta-version clinical detector, which is the size of a desktop computer, is ideal for the research, central testing laboratory, and veterinary markets. NanoDetection Technology is currently developing a field detector for use by farmers, soldiers and those on the front line of an early warning biological threat network. The field detector will be about the size of a large PDA. Both detectors are RF enabled.
In addition to the detectors, NanoDetection Technology is developing two types of disposable testing cartridges that will leverage either labor-rich or technology-rich users. Where trained labor is cheap, the testing cartridge will be a simple glass or plastic slide affixed by a handle that contains an RF identification tag for accurate and unique testing. Solutions and washes are administered separately in a ‘lab in a box’ concept.
Where technology is cheap vis a vis labor, NanoDetection Technology is developing a self-contained ‘lab on a card’ testing cartridge. This ‘lab on a card’ will utilize miniature pumps, heating elements (if necessary) and microfluidics to control samples, solutions and washes, which can be operated with minimally trained labor.
Compelling Value Proposition
Whether used by a researcher, clinician, farmer or soldier in the field, NanoDetection Technology’s best-in-class, ‘sensitive and specific’ field detector, based on a stable platform technology, delivers a solid value proposition:
- Inexpensive,
- Portable,
- Rapid, and
- Non-technical user friendly
NanoDetection Technology's value proposition is based on simplifying, but superior, technology.
