Company Summary
Drop Diagnostics is putting the power of a lab into your doctor's hand. We are developing an immediate diagnostic platform needing only one drop of blood, built into a smartphone. We have borrowed the glucose testing model, and applied it to dozens of other disease states by building our novel biosensor right into the test strips. Our technology can detect antibodies, antigens, DNA/RNA fragments, and even small molecules using only one drop.
