Tethis
     

Diagnostics Nanotechnoloy Platform

The technologies at the basis of Tethis activity allow the precise production and manipulation of nanoparticles in gas phase to yield either the synthesis of nanoparticles by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) or the deposition of nanostructured thin films on a wide variety of substrates applying supersonic cluster beams (SCBD).
These unique innovative materials and revolutionary coating solutions find application in a broad range of sectors; currently the two main areas of the company's interest are biotechnology and gas sensing:

Biotechnology
Tethis is developing solutions for biomedical applications based on coatings with innovative features including biocompatibility, high surface area, transparency, patterning and integration with microfabrication technology. This makes Tethis' coatings desirable for an optimized interaction with biomolecules and cells in a range of different applications. These novel coatings are being integrated with microarrays, high content cell-based assays and microfluidic platforms for approaching a range of biological assays.
