NanoMosaic Ships First Beta System To A Prestigious Institution

BOSTON, Oct. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- NanoMosaic, the pioneer in protein interrogation via proprietary nanoneedles, "MosaicNeedles™," has announced that on October 15, 2020 it shipped its first Tessie™ Beta System, to a prestigious Boston institution, and validated the platform. After an extensive alpha program employing novel algorithms and analysis techniques, the company successfully exported its technology to a prestigious third-party laboratory to develop a protein biomarker panel for rapid patient diagnosis and potential downstream clinical use.

"Not only do MosaicNeedles™ provide high sensitivity, but also flexibility to empower protein research. MosaicNeedles™ enable an entirely open consumable configuration, allowing researchers to customize their assay and use their own antibody reagents," stated Dr. Qimin Quan, Chief Scientific Officer of NanoMosaic. "The Tessie™ system scans and quantifies signals from each of the MosaicNeedles™ requiring no fluorescent tags, and thus allowing MosaicNeedles™ to be stored and scanned again," Dr. Quan continued. "Due to its ease of use, the Tessie™ system easily integrates into laboratory workflows," concluded Dr. Quan.

"The size of the MosaicNeedles™, which are three orders of magnitude smaller than currently available commercial substrates, allow for full proteome interrogation at seven orders of dynamic range on a single chip," stated John Boyce, President and CEO of NanoMosaic, and Co-Founder of Tiger Gene. "MosaicNeedles™, which are novel physical structures, will greatly increase the number of potential protein targets in pharmaceutical companies' pipelines and usher in a new era of diagnostics," Boyce concluded.

About NanoMosaic
NanoMosaic, a Boston-based biotechnology company, is the first commercial entity to leverage the power of nanoneedles for protein detection and quantification to develop best-in-class assays for biomarker discovery and validation. The NanoMosaic platform enables coverage of the largest dynamic range while maintaining high sensitivity, multiplexing capabilities and label-free assays. With 1.8 billion MosaicNeedles™ (each equating to a landing site for a protein, resulting in a read) on its current chip format, the NanoMosaic chip enables full proteome interrogation at 7 orders of dynamic range and is able to attain multiplexing levels in the thousands per chip. The proprietary technology enables rapid custom assay development with varying levels of concentrations on a single chip to develop novel biomarkers and push the frontier of the biomarker discovery and diagnostics space.
