NanoComposix – innovating solutions

Regular readers have probably worked out by now that we love to see gold being used in innovative and useful ways. The San Diego-based outfit NanoComposix are achieving just this, with a number of exciting R&D programmes running alongside their core business of supplying high specification nanoparticles to industry.

The company’s R&D programme is particularly robust, with a number of different projects currently ongoing. One which caught my eye was the use of gold nanoparticle matrices for MALDI-MS tissue imaging. This work has the potential to enhance the detection, identification, and analysis of small biomolecules directly from tissue surfaces.

If anyone reading wants to get in touch with the company feel free to contact me, or go to them directly.

  1. Hi. I wanted to know what is the significance of nanocomposix using nanotechnology in their R&D programmes? Is nanotechnology really the way to go with this?

    Thank you
