- Bringing nanofluidic technology to the people
About the technology
The Nanospacer is a specially designed microscope coverslip that allows nanoscale particle characterization. Nanofluidic technology, including analysis of proteins and binding events on a single-molecule level, will open doors to the next generation of nanomedicines, nanoparticles and nanomachinery.
Resources
- Research Council Norway commercialization grant
- Patent pending
- Prototypes ready for end-user testing
- Norinnova as commercialization partner
Value proposition
- Simple to use
- Broad application range
- Affordable
- Compatible with existing microscopes and workflows
Image: Areas of applications
(1) drug screening
(2) exosome analysis
(3) nanofluidic cell cultures
(4) fertility testing
Opportunities for Collaboration
We are looking for end-users to test our Nanospacer concept. We are open to collaborate to ensure the Nanospacer meets your specific needs.
