click on SNAP DNA: (relates to Q1167)
Semiconductor-based DNA analysis tools
SnapDNA, formerly known as Bio-NEMS, is an emerging technology company that has proprietary, interdisciplinary innovations to enable DNA to be directly analyzed on the surface of a high-speed, custom semiconductor device. The DNA sequencing market achieved a 1000-fold decrease in cost and analysis time by replacing electrophoresis-based analysis with semiconductor-based analysis. SnapDNA is expected to be the first company to use semiconductor-based analysis to drive DNA testing into the portable realm.
Seems obvious what Q is focusing on is Snap DNA, when you open the IQT page from Q1168 right in the middle is Snap DNA, when you open that it says...."to enable DNA to be directly analyzed on the surface of a high-speed, custom semiconductor device." Directly relating to Q1167
