Description | We have developed and tested a new technology for the screening of membrane proteins in microfluidics. |
Exploitation Route | This technology has been designed to look at human ion channels involved in disease states. There is potential for this technology to be used for drug discovery with other human membrane proteins, or membrane proteins from any other organism. |
Sectors | Pharmaceuticals and Medical Biotechnology |
