Title:
YOUTH rapid parallelized clinical chemistry assay development
Agreement Number:
977494
Agreement Value:
$50,000.00
Agreement Date:
Jun 1, 2021 - Mar 31, 2022
Description:
Clinical chemistry assays each come with different canonical protocols. Our goal is to reduce the large patient sample and reagent volumes required with traditional assay protocols, and run a large menu in parallel on a compact microfluidic disc. The Graduate’s work on assay development will enable a significant reduction in blood sample volumes, automated assay operation, and faster turnaround times for end users.
