Ometric’s Multivariate Optical Computing™ Technology Enables Life Sciences Researchers to Increase Speed While Reducing Error Rate
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Researchers in the life sciences field are now able to increase speed of research while simultaneously reducing their error rate thanks to technology developed by spectroscopy innovator Ometric™. The company’s Multivariate Optical Computing™ technology enables researchers to measure dye fluorescence in presence of competing fluorophores or autofluorescence real-time, in-line.
“For many decades scientists have been bound by the use of one dye or one filter,” said Bob Freese, Chief Technology Officer of Ometric. “Our technology, however, gives researchers the ability to detect dyes in spectrally overlapping environments. This allows researchers to reduce the number of cycles and amount of overall time spent on various experiments while at the same time diminishing the number of false results.”
Ometric’s SpectrInline Processware™ provides continuous and immediate feedback through real-time measurement at the speed of light. The company’s technology allows real-time, in-line process control in harsh industrial environments, with accuracies comparable to a lab optical spectrometer, and the simplicity and ruggedness of a photometer.
Ometric’s Easy Fit® process allows for ease of engagement for researchers interested in learning more about how Ometric’s technology can benefit their research process. Easy Fit® provides a quick evaluation of SpectrInline applicability to the researchers' process and requires no commitment of internal resources to lengthy feasibility programs.
