RAN Biotechnologies develops and supplies smart materials to address timely needs in next generation science. They include: - Hydrogel Beads: They are compressible, stable, monodisperse. Example custom mechanical, chemical and biological functionalities include barcoding, dissolvable and superparamagnetic beads. Their mechanical properties support their use in conventional microfluidics, wells and particle templated emulsion processes and can be adapted to custom workflows. - Fluorosurfactants: RAN Biotech’s gold standard and custom surfactants are used to stabilize water:oil interface and are mostly used in droplet microfluidics. - NextGen Affinity Resins that isolate and detect bacteria, fungi and viruses at the micro-scale as well as in bulk and continuous flow setups.
