LUCENTIX

LUCENTIX

Lausanne, Switzerland

Lucentix develops a biosensor technology that enables patients to measure concentrations of analytes in a single drop of blood or saliva by using a low-cost handheld device giving laboratory-quality results. The company's biosensors are based on the invention of a new type of biochemical sensing molecule. A light-producing enzyme called luciferase, is engineered to change the color of the emitted light in response to changes in analyte concentration. In absence of the analyte the molecular system emits red light, while at high analyte concentration the light is blue.

What do you think of LUCENTIX?

A HUGE part of what early stage companies, and even late stage ones, need and get on MedStartr is honest feedback from actual patients, clinicians, hospital leaders and industry insiders. It is very easy to get tunnel vision as a founder. Please tell the team that runs this company what you think.

Clinical Benefit Potential

The potential for a project to have a large and significant impact on medical care, treatment, or prevention.

Feasibility

The likelihood that this will provide benefit for patients / care givers and that the founders can execute on their vision and plan.

Innovativeness

The distinguishing features, concept, or technology that differentiates the entry compared to others that already exist and are in widespread use.

Fundability

The reviewers' beliefs that the idea is fundable or can make it to sustainability without outside investment.

Scalability

Some great ideas are destined to failure because they are too complex or too expensive. The reviewer should consider the likelihood that a project as explained, or perhaps with some tweaks, could possibly become a worldwide solution within a reasonable time frame.

Presentation Quality

How well the team presented the idea.
