Edinburgh-based life science company Cytomos has raised £1.6 million in seed funding to further develop its cell analysis platform, Cytomos Dielectric Spectroscopy (CDS)
The platform has applications in drug development, bioprocessing, and cell and gene therapy manufacturing
The funding round was led by existing investor Archangels, alongside Scottish Enterprise and the University of Edinburgh's venture investment fund, Old College Capital.
ProblemTechnology
"Developing and manufacturing life-saving biologic therapies is a complex and expensive process, often hindered by the lack of efficient and affordable cell analysis tools."
Solution
"Cytomos has developed a novel process analytical technology platform called Cytomos Dielectric Spectroscopy (CDS) that provides a low-cost, real-time, highly scalable, and easy-to-operate solution for single-cell and label-free analysis. This platform can be used in drug development, bioprocessing, vaccine production, and cell and gene therapy manufacturing."
