Description

Nanovex Biotechnologies offers a specific service for the characterization of exosomes

Exosomes are one the most interesting biological microvesicles due to the potential source of information contained inside these particles. This information could be crucial for instance as a new tool to diagnosis purposes or biomarker studies, the investigation of their role as a signal mediators or in different biological processes, or even as a novel treatment strategies.

Our facilities have the highest technology such as the Nanoparticle Track Analysis (NTA) Technology, based on hte analysis of Brownian motion, which is able to determine the size, size distribution and the exosome concentration in the sample.

NTA allows monitoring the hydrodynamic diameter of the exosomes straightaway in solution, besides obtaining at the same time an estimation of particle concentration. NTA can provide both sample concentration and size, besides it has a high resolving power. Moreover,  NTA analysis is not intensity-weighted to larger particles, but it is a technique in which the size of the particles is obtained from the measurement of the dynamic Brownian motion, the information is not extracted from the amount of light scattered by the particles in contrast to the basis of flow cytometry. Another important advantage of NTA is the fluorescence capability of the system, which enables to label specifically the particles.

Advantages of NTA technology for the characterization of exosomes

High resolving power to determine size and  concentration

Technology based in the Brownian motion

Fluorescence capability of the system

Ability to discriminate fluorescently marked exosomes of interest
