Santa Clara, California-based Proxim Diagnostics, a company developing a handheld, point-of care diagnostic device, has received a strategic investment from bioM\u00e9rieux, a world leader in the field of in vitro diagnostics.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

The funds will be used to complete the development and commercial path for Proxim\u2019s Profile System, a portable and fully automated immunodiagnostic device that can run a variety of multiplexed assays with disposable cartridges. As part of the investment, Andrew Parker, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Business Development for bioM\u00e9rieux, has joined Proxim\u2019s board of directors as an observer.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>

Proxim is developing a number of immunoassays for sepsis, cardiology, and infectious disease that can provide the same sensitivity and precision as tests run on larger, centralized laboratory equipment. The company\u2019s handheld device is expected to improve the ability for clinicians to perform rapid, high-quality testing at the point of care, for example in emergency rooms, intensive care units, nursing homes, community\/remote clinics and in-home care, as well as in disaster relief and defence situations. The system is currently available for research use only.<\/p>\n

Mikhail Briman, Ph.D., CEO and co-founder of Proxim Diagnostics, said: \u201cWe are thrilled to have this significant backing from a true leader in in vitro diagnostics testing that shares our desire to bring this innovative technology to the global market. With this investment, we will have the opportunity to make a bigger impact for patients, wherever they may be when their health care provider needs to make a rapid diagnosis. We also look forward to developing additional collaborations with our biopharma clients that can benefit from our flexible immunoassay platform.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
