Redefining Conventional Diagnostics: Adapting Materials for Integrated Biochemical Analysis to Increase Access to Testing

On-Demand Webinar

With: Ben Cobb
Founder of ReadyGo Diagnostics

With: Dr. Krista Ewing
Senior Global Product Manager – Diagnostics, Porex

Why what this on-demand webinar?

Unlocking the full potential of diagnostics requires rethinking traditional sample collection and preparation. Standard procedures rely on pipetting known volumes, prepping reagents, and performing multi-step purification in a laboratory setting. Each step requires experience and specialized equipment. Many point-of-care devices miniaturize and automate protocols to bring results closer to users and speed up diagnosis. However, these procedures can be simplified even further by utilizing innovative techniques in materials, treatment, and overall design.

In this webinar, Ben Cobb, founder of ReadyGo Diagnostics, will explore the intersection of material science and biochemical analysis, offering an innovative approach in the field of diagnostics. The session will explore the integration of Porex materials with ReadyGo’s chemistry and design platforms, which have simplified measured laboratory procedures — like pipetting and cell lysis prep — into cost-effective workflows suitable for any user. In doing so, they address preanalytical challenges and enable greater access to testing.
