DNA testing chip delivers results in one hour, paves way for personalized drug treatments - DigInfo TV



"By investigating SNPs, we can determine that this drug will work for this person, or this drug will have severe side-effects on that person. Investigating SNPs enables tailor-made therapy. But with the current method, it has to be done in a specialized lab, so it actually takes three to four days. In the worst case, it takes a week from sending the sample to getting the result. Our equipment can determine a patient's SNPs in just an hour after receiving the blood."

This is good info. A much needed advancement in medical science.Tests and reports available in a few minutes rather than days will significantly boost diagnosis including faster treatment.
