Painless, efficient clinical diagnostics
SensiVida Medical Technologies, Inc. is a minimally
invasive bio-medical diagnostic device company. Its
proprietary optical Micro-systems based technology
automates bio-sensing and data acquisition while
minimizing patient discomfort. The company's platform
technology addresses a number of disease state
diagnostics - allergy testing, pain-free automated
glucose monitoring without bio-fouling, blood
coagulation testing (e.g. for Coumadin patients), TB
testing and cholesterol monitoring. The company has been
developing two products based on its platform
technology. The initial focus is to commercialize a
highly accurate, rapid, 2X productive, pain- free
allergy test system in the US ($1.6B market growing at a
compounded rate of 7%). Several prototypes have been
made and proof-of-concept human clinical trial has been
completed. The second product, based on the same
technology is a unique portable glucose monitor ($8B
market growing at a compounded rate of 8%). This highly
differentiated device consists of a patch having
multiple individually - addressable sensors that are
activated in accordance to the patient's test schedule,
automatically measuring the glucose level without
bio-fouling, clogging or daily calibration. In addition,
the company possesses a unique Molecular Optical Biopsy
technology (Photonic "pill") that permits the diagnosis
of cancerous or pre-cancerous tissue without a biopsy.
CEO Sarbadhikari, representing an experienced and
successful corporate management team dedicated to
excellence, said, "We are extremely excited by the
prospects of being part of a new public company with a
new capital structure, new name, new symbol, broad new
platform technology with large market potential." We are
a minimally-invasive diagnostic device company with
proprietary, Microsystems-based technology that
automates bio-sensing and data acquisition while
minimizing patient discomfort. Our optical-digital
"platform" technology addresses a number of
multi-billion dollar market opportunities -disease-state
diagnostics: allergy testing, pain-free automated
glucose monitors without bio-fouling, blood coagulation
testing, TB testing, and cholesterol monitoring.
SensiVida has an exclusive worldwide license under nine
pending patents. Several working prototypes of the
allergy test system and proof-of- principle human
clinical results have been accomplished. The product
pipe line, based on the same technology "chassis",
includes a portable glucose monitor. This device
consists of a patch or chip having multiple,
individually addressable sensors that are activated in
accordance with the patient's test schedule,
automatically recording the patient's glucose level
without pain, bio-fouling or clogging.
