Start-up’s polymer could lead to RFID biotech
Coradyn Biosystems LLC, a start-up in the field of smart sensor materials, has licensed a responsive, conductive polymer technology from the University of Texas at Austin. The company believes the technology has applications as a biosensor or chemosensor for RFID, wireless, hand held or laboratory devices; and expects to use it in molecular sensor devices in a wide array of industries
Coradyn is focusing on conductive polymeric materials that can be customized to recognize a broad range of analytes and convert that recognition into a measurable electronic signal, producing similar results to those of biological reagents used in clinical testing. This technology could be used in a broad range of applications, including a form of personal health monitoring using RFID implants. ![[end]](/resources/bullet/rfidnews-4.gif)
