Description
Nexgenia’s develops and manufactures proprietary stimuli-responsive polymers andpolymer-containing magnetic nanoparticles. These unique polymers change state – from soluble single macromolecules to large insoluble aggregates – in response to modest changes in their environment. When these polymers are attached to other chemicals / biologicals, they confer the same environmentally-responsive characteristics. The resulting combinations can be small when it is advantageous to be small and large when that facilitates separation and analysis. This property enables the development of faster, more complete molecular / cellular separations and faster, more sensitive immunoassays.
