Results are available for immediate review via networked computers.
Advantages of the technology
It is through the integration of a number of technologies that Visulife provides the key advantages of:
Sensitivity
Provided by the use of Surface Enhanced Resonance Raman Spectroscopy (SERRS) for detection.
Specificity
Detection and quantification of the target protein biomarker is achieved through bio-displacement of specially selected peptide/antibody pair.
Stability
Robust auto-calibration technique removes variability between chips
Speed
The integration of microfluidics, rapid bio-displacement and SERRS detection provides a simple protocol and rapid results.
Simplicity
All reagents required for detecting protein biomarkers are supplied on a single chip.
