Omega Optics, a leader in nanophotonics R&D, is developing novel chip-based technology that will revolutionize the world of portable, label-free bioassay devices.
Our most recent achievements and innovations in silicon-based “slow light” photonics enhances the effective optical path lengths and thereby enables miniaturization and higher detection sensitivity. With these breakthroughs, we are engineering a platform technology of highly sensitive, flexible, portable, multiplexed and cost-effective
“lab-on-chip” solutions that will soon disrupt portable bioassay markets.
Potential Applications
Our patented (and patent-pending) technologies can power highly-sensitive portable (or bench-top) devices for biosensing applications including:
- Detection of heavy metals, VOCs and TICs in water
- Pathogen detection in Food & Beverage
- Early cancer biomarkers
- Infectious diseases
- Antibiotic monitoring
- Pharmaceutical drug discovery
Technical Advantages
- Our proprietary microarray design allows for up to 128/256 different targets and controls to be tested simultaneously on the same chip<
- Total sample volume of only 100μl required for all 128/256 targets and controls
- Detects any biomolecule (proteins, DNA, mRNA, small molecules) via conjugate affinity with high specificity and high sensitivity
- In-situ results in less than 30 minutes with rugged, portable, easy-to-use devices
