Lab-on-a-Chip Contract Manufacturing
With the emergence of lab-on-a-chip technologies, whole laboratories have been reduced to a small chip. As a result, there’s increasing demand for pint-sized diagnostics solutions.
Bring your lab-on-a-chip design to market with Hudson Medical Innovations. As an ISO 9001:2015- and 13485:2016-certified contract manufacturer of medical device products, we’re the leader in custom microfluidic chips, component, and assembly fabrication.
Small footprint, enormous impact
A lab-on-a-chip, or LOC, is a miniaturized device that integrates microfluidics and nanotechnology to carry out one or more complex biochemical analyses. The miniaturization of biochemical operations typically performed a laboratory provides many advantages:
- Efficiency
- Parallelization
- Ergonomics
- Speed
- Sensitivity
LOC chip sizes range from a few square millimeters to many square centimeters. This achieves high-throughput screening and automation.
Compared to traditional biochemical analysis methods, LOC utilizes small fluid volumes. This helps cut costs and response time. It enables greater control over sample concentrations and interactions, reducing the quantity of chemical waste. Common tests performed by LOC include:
- Human Diagnostics
- DNA Sequencing
- Protein Separation
- Chemical Synthesis
In late 2020, researchers announced the development of LOC infection testing for SARS-CoV-2. If regulatory approval for mass production is obtained, this opens up the possibility of easier, more affordable, and faster detection of it and other novel coronaviruses. Tests could be performed on tabletops.
