Research abstract
BIODE, INC., WILL UTILIZE THE RESULTS OF ITS PHASE I RESEARCH TO DEVELOP A TOTALLY NEW SOLID-STATE SENSOR TECHNOLOGY FOR BIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS. THIS TECHNOLOGY IS BASED UPON THE MERGING OF TWO OTHER RELATIVELY NEW TECHNOLOGIES: NUCLEIC ACID PROBES (NUCLEIC ACID HYBRIDIZATION) WITH ACOUSTIC PLATE MODE (APM) MICROSENSORS. BY COMBINING THE SENSITIVITY OF APM SENSORS WITH THE SPECIFICITY OF NUCLEIC ACID PROBES, BIODE, INC., WILL CREATE A NOVEL DETECTION TECHNOLOGY WITH THE POTENTIAL TO SURPASS THE EXISTING SENSITIVITY LIMITS WHILE MAINTAINING THE REQUISITE SPECIFICITY.
