Discover our Process Analytical Technology

Redefining bioprocess control with the platform technology, Biosensing by Particle Motion (BPM). Designed for real-time bioprocess analysis, BPM provides a powerful tool to monitor a broad range of biomolecules — including small molecules, peptides, proteins, nucleic acids — across a wide range of concentrations, from picomolar to millimolar.

The very heart of BPM comprises particles which are molecularly tethered to a surface, and whose thermal motion reveals reversible biochemical interactions. By simultaneously tracking the motion of thousands of particles and by the single-molecule resolution of BPM, biomolecular concentrations are determined with a high sensitivity and precision with statistical robustness.
