Genomtec is a technology company operating in the field of clinical diagnostics. It was established in 2016 in Wrocław, with a vision of international expansion based on a unique mobile genetic diagnostics platform utilizing a patented contactless heating and detection system. The company, founded by a group of scientists with experience and competences in the field of molecular biology, microstructures and photonics, has its headquarters and laboratories in Wrocław. Genomtec also has an office in the United Kingdom, where part of the international research and engineering team is located.
Genomtec S.A. is mainly involved in conducting research and development activities, as well as commercialization of its innovative molecular diagnostic products in the area of optical systems and isothermal nucleic acid amplification methods.
The company’s flagship project is Genomtec ID. Its creation and commercialization will allow the diagnostic process to be executed in point of care setting, such as: primary care clinics, pharmacies, doctor’s offices, hospital emergency departments (ERs) without the need for complicated and time-consuming laboratory workflow conducted by qualified personnel. The main benefits of Genomtec ID are: small size of the analyzer, low energy consumption, shortened diagnostic time, wide spectrum and high accuracy of the analysis, as well as affordable price. All these features will put Genomtec ID ahead of other genetic diagnostic devices currently available on the global market.
The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that rapidly determining the pathogenesis, or causes of the disease, at the level of basic cellular structures (RNA and DNA) is the new expected standard. Genetic diagnostics already offers the highest level of efficiency and precision in detecting pathogens. Upcoming epidemic challenges, such as, for example, subsequent epidemic cycles, rising treatment costs, aging population or rise in occurance of of neoplastic diseases have pushed the bar in the development of diagnostic technologies. Speed, efficiency and cost-effectiveness – these are the features that products available on the medical screening and diagnostic market should have in the near future. These expectations are met by new technological solutions, i.e. devices that allow conducting point-of-care testing (POCT).
Since its beginnings in 2016, the Genomtec team knew that rapid genetic diagnosis is the future of the market. In addition, the company chose to work with the new technology of Loop-Mediated Isothermal Nucleic Acid Amplification – LAMP..
It is an important part of the developed analyzer’s design based on the patented SNAAT®technology, consisting of photon energy contactless heating and temperature detection embedded in the analyzer system, which together with the microfluidic card and firmware creats the Genomtec ID mobile genetic diagnostics platform.
