Panbio is a Columbia, MD-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Bloodstream infection leading to sepsis is responsible for more than half of all deaths in hospitals and is the most expensive condition treated in hospitals. Mortality rate increases 6% every hour from onset. Therefore, it is critical the right antibiotic treatment is determined quickly. Current methodologies require 3 days to determine the effective antibiotic. Specific Diagnostics has developed a new technology that determines the effective antibiotic in less than 1 day. Specific`s Reveal™ instrument and assay are cost effective and labor-saving allowing clinics to readily deploy the Specific Reveal solution. Specific`s unique patented technology leverages a low-cost small molecule sensor (SMS) array, enabling diagnostic products that simplify workflow and speed time-to-answer at low cost. Specific`s system streamlines lab workflow, reduce costs, and substantially shorten the time from sample arrival to selection of effective therapy, saving patients faced with fast-moving and deadly drug-resistant blood infections. Specific and its founders have written almost 60 peer-reviewed publications, detailing the successful demonstration of the SMS array technology. The Company itself has independently authored over 20 scientific publications and conference abstracts detailing the SMS array powered detection, identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing.

At Proof, we believe that knowledge is power—and good health is a necessity. We`re a health technology and diagnostics company that is currently developing a cutting-edge, CRISPR-based platform for point-of-care facilities to test for COVID-19, with ambitions to transform in-home diagnostics across a broad spectrum of health applications in the future. Proof is the brainchild of Professor Feng Zhang, a world-renowned molecular biologist and leader of a research lab at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. In early 2020, Dr. Zhang along with Dr. Jonathan Gootenberg and Dr. Omar Abudayyeh of the McGovern Institute pivoted their focus towards combating the emergent threat of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pioneers of the CRISPR gene-editing technology, the three scientists dropped everything to face the global public health crisis head on. Combining CRISPR and RT-LAMP technologies in a novel approach, our scientific team is developing a simple, streamlined molecular diagnostics platform that can quickly test for the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Intended for use within clinics, pharmacies, schools, workplaces and eventually homes, our easy-to-use, lab-quality test platform is undergoing rigorous R&D protocols so that we can provide fast, accurate diagnostics that will help communities take control of their health. We want to transform the anxiety of waiting days for COVID-19 test results into the peace of mind of quickly knowing what steps to take next. Our first test system, which we`re designing to detect SARS-CoV-2, will enable us to fulfill our mission of helping restore a degree of normalcy to our world. From there, we aim to transform personalized health, and expand our diagnostic platform to detect other diseases, with the goal of providing actionable health information that will allow people to lead better, healthier lives.
