Optimization of Surface Functionalization of Biosensor for Accelerated Drug Development & Production

Hexager Fab的目标是解开生物分子的秘密，并阐明它们是如何相互作用的。Hexager Fab创建的蛋白质分析仪器Bolt帮助制药业开发未来的药物，找到生产药物的最佳实践，并通过方便和加速的质量控制(QC)确保其有效性和安全性。目前用于药物发现和开发的用于进行质量控制测量的系统正在达到其极限，其繁琐的规程和重要的动手时间。基于剑桥大学近十年的研究，Hexager Fab开发了一种专为方便和快速的QC测量而定制的新型传感器平台，从而为制药行业的药物开发过程提供了解决方案。由于新的传感器技术对Hexager Fab的Bolt至关重要，该项目的目标是优化传感器表面的功能化，将Bolt推向市场。该传感器的高特异性和灵敏度与其独特的技术相结合，将有助于药物开发行业大大加快他们的研发进程，导致更安全和更有效的药物。

The goal of HexagonFab is to unlock the secrets of biomolecules and shed light on how they interact. The protein analysis instrument BOLT created by HexagonFab helps the pharmaceutical industry to develop the medicine of the future, to find the best practice to produce drugs and to ensure their efficacy and safety through convenient and accelerated quality control (QC). The current systems used in drug discovery and development to perform QC measurements are hitting their limits with laborious protocols and significant hands-on-time. HexagonFab has developed a novel sensor platform tailored for convenient and rapid QC measurements, based on nearly a decade of research at the University of Cambridge, thereby offering a solution for the drug development process in the pharmaceutical industry.As the novel sensor technology is crucial for HexagonFab's BOLT, the goal of the project is to optimise the sensor surface functionalization to bring BOLT to the market. The high specificity and sensitivity of the sensor combined with its unique technology will help the drug development industry significantly to accelerate their research and development processes, leading to safer and more efficacious drugs.
