Project ID: IVD102
Category: In Vitro Diagnostics
Keyword: Respiratory tract infection
The goal of Project IVD102 is to develop a detection and identification system for corona viruses including the 2019-nCoV Acute Respiratory Disease and respective influence viruses as a point-of-care device allowing a sample-to-answer operation. This aim will be addresses with a lab-on-a-chip approach consisting of the “Chip” as a consumable and the instrument to run and control the chip. Operation of the system will work as following: After sample introduction on the chip and insertion in the respective instrument, the sequence carried out in the lab-on-a-chip system without any further manual interaction comprise: Sample enrichment, lysis, target concentration, multiplexed quantitative amplification and detection.
The project will deliver a point-of-care diagnostic platform for the simultaneous detection of the 2019-nCoV and further RNA viruses causing similar symptoms, without the need for equipped laboratory infrastructures or trained users, and a rapid turnaround time of 90 minutes from sample-to-answer allowing for 150 parallel amplifications. The system will be validated and will reach TRL 9 at the project end.

Project ID: IVD103
Category: In Vitro Diagnostics
Keyword: CRISPR-based detection kit
Project IVD103 has developed a portable CRISPR-based kit for molecular diagnostics of COVID-19 (powered by novel/enhanced Cas enzymes). The company has been developing its technology as a platform, being capable of easily readapting to new targets. Recently, since the emergence of COVID-19 the team has developed a CRISPR complex (Cas enzyme + COVID-19 complementary RNA Guide), and validated it’s performance using synthetic targets and a synthetic sample of sputum (as a proof of principle of real patient sample). Caspr’s lateral flow-based test enables detection in less than 60 minutes, with minimal sample preparation.
Previously, company has been working with Hospitals & Labs in validations concerning detection limits(reaching attomolar levels) and performance of targets corresponding to different Infectious Diseases (DENV, HANTAV, ZIKA, amongst others).
Project is looking for opportunities of working with global health institutions and governments in order to further validate the aforementioned portable kit with real samples and try to scale it to production phase as soon as possible. Initial connections have been established with officials that correspond to the government of Philippines and China.
Current detection tests of COVID-19 show drawbacks when providing people and professionals with the relevant and precise information in time critical conditions. Decentralized testing is only based on symptoms assessment (temperature measurement, CT scans), thus leading to a high rate of false negatives. This is particularly relevant taking into account that incubation period has been estimated to be of up to 24 days. Hence COVID-19 spreading might occur before symptoms appear. Molecular tests (qPCR) are limited to lab settings, taking days YO PONDRIA SEVERAL HOURS ACA for results to be available and being performed in a centralized manner. Our fast, precise & portable Molecular detection solution could be crucial in better controlling and managing COVID-19.

Project ID: IVD107
Category: In Vitro Diagnostics
Keyword: Early detection of breast cancer
Project IVD107 is based on a US patent to screen for breast cancer through newly discovered cancer markers in the blood. This discovery has been verified by more than 500 columns in the United States. Not only the results are satisfactory (sensitivity and specificity are 86.2% and 100%, respectively), but also the early stage of breast cancer (before stage 0 formation) has obvious expression. Not only can it be used as an early screening for breast cancer, it can also be used as a detection method for breast cancer treatment. It is believed that this will be a major breakthrough in breast cancer detection, especially in the early screening of breast cancer.
The project plans to land in China to produce ELISA kits and intermediate products-antigen antibodies for early detection of breast cancer.

Project IVD115 invented a device to copy biomolcules. We take DNA as input and generate microarrays in terms of DNA, RNA and proteins. If we take e.g. cDNA of a virus, we can with a blood sample of a survivor identify the potential vaccine candidate molecules. Same technqieu can be used to see if a vaccine yields correct folded proteins (and has therefore high potential to raise immunity) and after vaccination can be used to control if the vaccinated persons develop the same antibody pattern as an infected one. So 3 levels of defence for pandemics. Apart from that the platform can be used to measure antibody titers against known diseases (so to say a kind of immunity control) and also for allergies. Basically it can be used for blood antibody monitoring.
