DescriptionProducer of nanoparticles for biomedical research and diagnostics.
Nano Biosols Ltd was set up in 2014 with investment from The North West Fund (Biomedical) with a view to capitalising on the founder's experience and helping to develop nanoparticle technology further.
The first generation of biologically functionalised gold nanoparticles was developed as a tool in life science research, mainly in microscopy. The second generation nanoparticles were used as components in lateral flow in-vitro diagnostic kits, where they produce a macroscopic red signal confirming the result of a test. It is predicted that the third generation of gold nanoparticles will feature as theranostics i.e. as therapeutic and diagnostic agents in the developing field of nanomedicine. It is assumed that the next generation will be multi-modal in that they can be targeted, imaged and deliver a therapeutic action.
