Company Description: GenoSpectra is a life science technology company based in San Francisco Bay Area “Bay Area” redirects here. For other uses, see Bay Area (disambiguation). The San Francisco Bay Area, colloquially known as the Bay Area or The Bay . The core of GenoSpectra's technology platform involves a novel and proprietary design employing fiber optics fiber optics, transmission of digitized messages or information by light pulses along hair-thin glass fibers. Each fiber is surrounded by a cladding having a high index of refractance so that the light is internally reflected and travels the length of the fiber technologies. This technology allows simultaneous transfer of information and transport of materials by implementing the massive parallel processing parallel processing, the concurrent or simultaneous execution of two or more parts of a single computer program, at speeds far exceeding those of a conventional computer. power of fiber optics for drug discovery, diagnostics and other life science applications. GenoSpectra focuses on building a robust pipeline of products centered on its core platform. The Company will produce high-density DNA DNA: see nucleic acid. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes. and protein microarrays that are affordable to every lab, flexible for standard and custom applications, and compatible with current installation of devices for microarray analysis. In addition, GenoSpectra will bring to the market an extreme high-throughput screening High-throughput screening (HTS), is a method for scientific experimentation especially used in drug discovery and relevant to the fields of biology and chemistry. Purpose and method (XHTS(TM)) system that transforms microtiter plate A Microtiter plate or microplate is a flat plate with multiple "wells" used as small test tubes. The microplate has become a standard tool in analytical research and clinical diagnostic testing laboratories. based screening into microarray scale screening. The company aims to drastically lower entry barriers to parallel drug discovery through its product offerings and a lead compound discovery program - FForward(TM) Discovery. This program integrates XHTS(TM), ADMET ADMET Acyclic Diene Metathesis ADMET Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity (drug properties) microarrays, and biomarker microarrays for parallel drug screening against target families and validation through chemical knockout. GenoSpectra will also expand the application of its fiber optics-based technology to medical device, combinatorial chemistry and material science. |
