4. Mix&Go - Universal Surface Coating
Mix&Go: A Game Changing Product with emerging revenue streams and significant
growth potential
Mix&Go is a specialized universal “glue”:
•
uniquely suited for applications in
diagnostics and life sciences
Mix&Go is applicable to numerous other
large healthcare related segments, e.g.:
•
Separation of proteins and cells
•
Forms ultrathin (< 1nm) layers that bond
strongly
•
Drug discovery and
development
•
Is gentle and does not damage the activity
of fragile biomolecules
•
Medical devices
•
Drug delivery
•
Improves pathology tests earlier
disease detection
•
Reduces cost of test development and
manufacture (faster/less Ab required)
Mix&Go is well suited to be the “glue” of choice in a variety of applications and industries outside of
healthcare, e.g. Resources and Cleantech
