Over the past few years, the SNAP-tag technology has become a methodology with great potential in a variety of applications, e.g. the (specific) visualization of individual proteins and studies of protein interaction in living cells. Furthermore, the tag can be used for immunopurification and detection of recombinant proteins or site-specific coupling of recombinant proteins to surfaces. Next to the in vitro applications, it also enables detection of tagged proteins in vivo.

Biosensors are used for a variety of applications in medicine and biology. A critical step during the development of such devices is the coordination of biological and technical requirements. The design of the device, as well as of the sample chamber and its functionalized surface are of great importance. Depending on the surface, the method of coupling of the desired receptor has to be adapted, to guarantee functionality and biological activity during the measuring process.

Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in women worldwide. According to estimates nearly 480,000 women died because of breast cancer in 2008. Therefore it is increasingly important to develop a method, which identifies breast cancer at an early stage, so that a therapy can be induced very fast. The Interreg IV-A project MICROBIOMED (MICROtechnologies for BIOMEDical applications) was funded to achieve this goal by developing an in vitro diagnostic tool.

The Biomedica Summit 2013 was held in Aachen, Germany, 18 – 19 June.
Our MicroBioMed booth was managed by project partners from Belgium, Germany and Netherlands. It was a good time to make a first public presentation of the project and to meet international players from the Bio-Medical sector. Attendees were impressed by our technologies and are now looking forward to the product realization.
We were pleased to present the characteristics of our future lab-on-a-chip device which will help drastically the human diseases detection.
