About New England HemolyticsNew England Hemolytics is a leading Fully Automated Sample Prep System company for Direct-from-Blood, No-culture Diagnostic Assays. New England Hemolytics has invented a novel and transformative blood processing technology which they have incorporated into a revolutionary new automated clinical lab instrument that can rapidly extract pathogens and their DNA from venous whole blood samples with very high efficiency, thus enabling rapid and effective molecular diagnostic solutions for low-concentration blood-borne infections such as sepsis and Lyme disease. The US healthcare system spends over $20B per year treating patients with sepsis. Despite this, the rapid, accurate, and specific diagnosis of sepsis is still a largely unaddressed medical need and is estimated to be a $3.4B market in the U.S. The NEH sample preparation technology and instrument will enable downstream molecular diagnostic assays such as PCR and isothermal DNA amplification based-detection/identification, and eventually DNA sequencing. New England Hemolytics leadership team has over 80 years of combined experience in instrument, kit, and diagnostic assay development. For more information visit www.newenglandhemolytics.com
