SIGNIFICANT EVENTS – SECOND QUARTER 2022

  • Qlife’s scientific team has completed the development of and filed a patent application for a blood-to-plasma filtration unit for blood-based biomarker testing. The Egoo capsule already integrates all reagents and with the new filtration unit instead of adding whole blood into the capsule now plasma can be entered, and the test is executed in the device accordingly. In short, the filtration unit is making the Egoo platform more versatile as it now can be used for testing plasma in addition to whole blood.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS - FIRST QUARTER 2022
