Early-stage R&D

We focus on early-stage technology development.

A specialized life-science R&D team working at the interface of molecular recognition, surface chemistry and electrochemical sensing.

01

Molecular Recognition

Aptamers, receptors, target assessment, assay architecture.

02

Surface & Sensor Development

Immobilization, electrode functionalization, SPE-based sensing.

03

Electrochemical Detection

SWV, DPV, CV, EIS, calibration and experimental optimization.

Contract R&D services

Choose the smallest program that moves the technology forward.

01

Biosensor Feasibility Study

Can this target become a working biosensor?

Target assessment, scientific and application context, assay concept, sensor architecture, first experimental tests and go/no-go recommendation.

02

Proof-of-Concept Development

Turn the concept into experimental evidence.

Sensor preparation, immobilization, electrochemical readout, calibration and preliminary performance data.

03

Sensor Optimization & Validation

Improve performance and generate reliable data.

Sensitivity, repeatability, dynamic range, matrix effects, interference and assay optimization.

04

Custom R&D Program

Extend your R&D team without building it in-house.

Dedicated experimental work, iterative development, data analysis and regular technical reviews.
