Proteins

SonoPlot's Microplotter instruments let you print materials for microelectronics or biological spotting.

The novel ultrasonic technology used in these instruments allows for materials like nanometallic silver, carbon nanotubes, DNA, and proteins to be printed in microscale spots, lines, or other shapes.

Oxford Nanopore Technologies Ltd is developing a disruptive, proprietary technology platform for the direct, electronic analysis of single molecules. The technology is adaptable for the analysis of DNA, RNA, proteins, small molecules and other types of molecule. Consequently, the platform has a broad range of potential applications, including scientific research, personalised medicine, crop science and security/defence.
