Ciencia's main business focus is the integration of advanced fluorescence sensing instrumentation, novel fluorescent dyes, and proprietary assay methods with sophisticated analytical systems targeted to broad applications in biomedical research, environmental and industrial markets. Ciencia's goals are to dramatically reduce the size and cost of instrumentation while achieving commensurate increases in assay sensitivity, speed and robustness, and then, through collaboration with strategic partners, to design, develop and produce fully integrated systems targeted to specific applications.
