ELECTRONIC BIOSCIENCES

Company Overview

Electronic Biosciences is developing products for DNA sequencing, ion channel characterization, and chemical sensing. The company’s technology combines biological and low-noise electronics platforms, which enables nanopore and ion channel measurements.

Electronic Biosciences' first commercial product, Nanopatch, was launched in 2013. Nanopatch is used in electrophysiology applications as a replacement for the patch-clamp method.

For DNA sequencing applications, the bases in the DNA strand create an electronic signal as they are passed through an alpha-hemolysin nanopore.

Electronic Biosciences is working on optimizing the technology for single-molecule sequencing, including reducing the length of repeats that are read to a few nucleotides and reducing sequencing errors by multiple reads as the DNA moves through the nanopore.
