Lightsense
Lightsense's Enhanced Photodetection Spectroscopy (EPS) platform is the basis that allows handheld optical instruments to detect viruses and bacteria in potentially minutes, rather than hours/days with standard PCR/DNA methods.
Targets include detecting illicit drugs (as in the opioid epidemic) and viral pathogens (as in the COVID-19 pandemic), and detecting bacterial pathogens in food safety.
The DLA (US DoD) awarded Lightsense an SBIR grant to further develop these spectrometers for detection of SARS-COV-2 and other viruses in saliva.
The EPS platform has potential to provide increased sensitivity and accuracy when detecting and identifying viral pathogens against complex backgrounds of biological fluids.
