Handheld Biosensor Reader

Our electronic biosensor reader is a low cost, rapid testing platform designed to provide quantitative or qualitative results using a variety of sample sources (e.g. blood, urine, food, etc).  The compact, portable biosensor reader, which converts the cartridge’s electronic output into an easy to understand test result, can be used in laboratories or at the point-of-care.  After a sample is applied to a biosensor chip, it is inserted into the reader, which is designed to automatically and simultaneously detect multiple targets and display the numerical results on an electronic read-out.  

Current diagnostic testing equipment occupies tabletops or entire rooms, requires highly trained operators, and costs hundred of thousands of dollars.  Collected test samples generally must be sent to specialized facilities, increasing the time to obtain test results.  In contrast, our reader is small and portable, designed with a size and cost to enable its use in multiple applications at the point of use and is comparable in size and simplicity to a Palm Pilot™ or blood glucose meter.
