Employing Gold Nanorods in Medical Diagnostic Tests and Healthcare

Sona Nanotech Inc has developed two gold nanorods products for use in medical diagnostic tests and healthcare. Medical diagnostics kits made with these nanorods are highly accurate and determine the test results in only minutes. The company incomes include licensing the technology, selling reagents, and developing and producing kits. The company expects to achieve $ 35.9 million in revenue by 2025 through its revenue channels.

Sona Nanotech is a nanotechnology life science company that has developed two innovative gold nanorod products: GeminiTM and OmniTM. Gemini is a CTAB-free gold nanorod product that enables multiplexing of lateral flow diagnostic tests for multiple analytes on just one device, returning accurate results in only minutes. Lateral flow diagnostic testing is used to confirm the absence or presence of analytes or contaminants. The tests are commonly found in human health point-of-care testing and can be applied to a number of different industries due to their versatility.

OmniTM is another innovative gold nanorod product designed by Sona Nanotech in order to be used In-vivo (inside cells) for medical applications including drug delivery, photothermal therapy and cell imaging. In addition to its gold nanorod products, Sona Nanotech offers additional services that utilize the same technology including conjugation services, lateral flow test development and lateral flow test production.
