IQ Micro Announces Completion of Micro-Fabricating Program

Read time: Less than a minute

IQ Micro Inc. has announced the completion of an important micro-fabricating program conducted by the Centre Suisse d'Electronique et de Microtechnique SA (CSEM) in Switzerland.

This technical achievement is significant because microchips containing thousands of invisible pumps can now be mass produced for a wide range of applications including lab-on-chip technology used to perform high-speed medical analysis.

Johnny Christiansen, president and CEO of IQ Micro said, "This success of our micro-fabricating program represents a major achievement for our company."

"To our knowledge this is a first in our industry. As a result, we are taking the necessary steps to protect this exciting, new technology."

"With a proven ability to micro-fabricate thousands of our "Invisible Pumps" on a single micro-chip, the mass production of complex microfluidic systems has been significantly simplified."

"We intend to proceed as quickly as possible to exploit this competitive advantage by entering into licensing arrangements involving multiple applications of this technology."
