Our mission is to partner with corporations
and government to deliver the benefits of field-based, laboratory
quality IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) testing using hand held devices
and lab on a chip consumables.
MycroLab has developed a hand-held, universal POC (Point of Care)
solution, designed so unskilled users can get
rapid and reliable laboratory-quality results anywhere for almost any
IVD assay, with no training.
MycroLab’s novel integration of handheld instrumentation and
complex lab-on-a-chip (LOC) consumables delivers key adavntages:
+ Eliminate highly skilled
labour and expensive laboratory equipment
+ Eliminate the need for sample
transport to a centralised laboratory
+ Provide immediate on-site results leading to immediate action
+ Lower the costs of IVD
testing
+ Any user can run almost any IVD protocol on one handheld
MycroLab instrument, simply by swapping consumables
+ Results are captured electronically by both consumable and instrument. Data is write-protected and therefore tamper-proof
MycroLab has achieved this technical breakthrough on the back of its
highly complex lab-on-a-chip Mycro®Cards. Each Mycro®Card
contains and process the entire assay protocol on-card, from sample
preparation through to detection. This breakthrough has been made
possible by MycroLab's highly advanced microfluidic design toolkit,
allied with MycroLab's SWAPP® manufacturing processes. These
complex and intelligent consumable Mycro®Cards have been designed
for production in a low-cost, high-speed, mass-customised manufacturing
setting.
MycroLab has designed and fully integrated its technologies to provide
a solution for users in both the first and the developing worlds, for
people and organizations who need reliable, low cost, lab-quality POC
(point of care) invitro diagnostic testing.
The MycroLab IVD solution is suitable for use in many markets, including chemical and biochemical testing for: + Bio-Security + Forensics + Clinical Pathology + DNA Testing + Pathogen Detection + Drug Screening + Disease State Monitoring + Pharmacogenomics + Pharmacy/Doctor's Surgery Testing + Home Testing + Remote Medicine + Pandemic Monitoring
