Surfix’s business is based on three pillars with nanocoatings as common denominator:
Photonic biochip
- Ultrasensitive photonic biochip based on silicon nitride waveguide technology
- Surface modification enables the sensitive and selective detection of the analyte of interest
- Nanocoatings for photonic biosensors improve the sensitivity and limit of detection
- Reduced unwanted non-specific adsorption
Microfluidics
- Optimized surface properties of glass and polymer microfluidics
- Control of wettability/flow properties and non-specific adsorption of biomolecules
- Nanocoatings are compatible with bonding/closing of the device
- Can be combined with biofunctionalization
Custom nanocoatings
- Broad knowledge and experience in surface modification
- Understanding of application areas and portfolio of proprietary surface modification technologies
- Close collaboration to identify opportunities to improve the performance of materials and devices
- Development of custom nanocoatings, coating of devices, technology transfer and IP licensing
