Company Profile

Spectradyne LLC has developed proprietary technology for efficiently and accurately measuring and analyzing nanoparticles. The capabilities of their technology include: measurement of single particles, no averaging, 50 nm – 1,000 nm diameter, measurement/analysis of up to 10,000 particles/second, absolute concentration, and any level of polydispersity. The company's nCS1 technology is a bench top instrument with a 1’ square footprint, operated by a computer through a standard USB interface. It is based on Resistive Pulse Sensing, and is implemented through a combination of semiconductor nano-fabrication techniques, low-cost plastic molding, low-noise electrical sensing, and innovative signal-extraction algorithms. The primary application of Spectradyne's technology is the measurement of protein aggregation in the drug development industry, but there are other applications in virology and in consumer product quality control. The company's Nanoparticale Analyzer (NA) technology was invented at the University of California, Santa Barba
