• Only small sample valumes (blood/serum) of several microliter are sufficient for reliable biomarker analysis
• A single POC system can perform fluid processing and analysis directly from sample acquisition (from venous/capillary blood or tissue swap) to results on a touchscreen, including access to online-databases for enhanced diagnostic precision
• A single handheld and operator friendly solution requires no further training or professional personnel
• Time-to-results is reduced to an unsurpassed timespan of below 10 minutes from the moment of sample drawn to a precise and electronically assisted diagnosis (including identification of specific viral- and bacterial strains)
• The cost reduction due to reduced volume and complexity of consumables/reagents enables very attractive and economic manufacturing costs
• Transfer times of samples to centralized laboratories vanish and patients receive results without further delay
• Patient screening for travellers for example people travelling to/from high-risk regions in global pandemic situations are performed with ease

Facts sheet

• fast results (approx 5-10 min.)
• small sample volumes, the portable device can be operated at the pint of care (POC)
• multiplexed detection of dozens of analytes per fluid sample
• high sensitivity (early detection of diseases)
• low production costs for disposable chips
• high flexibility: the sensor platform is easily and quicky adapted to new target analytes
• low production costs for handheld device (especially important for applications in developing and third-world countries)
