Helios Bioelectronics Information

Helios Bioelectronics is the developer of a multi-patented electrochemical chip, the FET Chip, which identifies targeted elements such as viral proteins or nucleic acids that can be used to identify specific diseases such as COVID-19. Sometimes called "lab on a chip," this nanotechnology enables a vast amount of information to be gathered through assays processed at the point-of-care that would otherwise rely on detection via remote biological laboratories. Using its patented sample purification technology, GattaCo hasdeveloped a plasma separation tool, the A-PON™. The A-PON automatically separates plasma from whole blood collected from a finger-stick without needing a centrifuge. GattaCo is developing a blood analysis cartridge system that integrates its sample purification technology together with Helios Bioelectronics' FET Chip. This cartridge will be read by iAssay's SimpleTest™ base technology with an adaptor specifically developed for the Helios/GattaCo cartridge.
