bioAffinity Technologies Presents Research Findings at CYTO 2023
Rossella Titone, Ph.D., Staff Scientist at bioAffinity Technologies, will discuss the suitability of the Company’s proprietary compensation beads for commercial use with flow cytometry, including with CyPath® Lung, a noninvasive test for the early detection of lung cancer. The poster will be displayed throughout the CYTO conference.
bioAffinity Technologies’ diagnostic for early-stage lung cancer, CyPath® Lung, uses flow cytometry to identify cell populations in sputum that indicate cancer is present in the lung. CyPath® Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin, TCPP, that is preferentially taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. The presence of a TCPP-labeled cell population is one of several cell populations found to be indicative of lung cancer.
Unlike traditional microscopy-based cytology that is labor-intensive and evaluates only a small fraction of a sample, CyPath® Lung’s flow cytometry platform profiles an entire sputum sample that contains millions of cells in minutes. The test’s proprietary, AI-driven automated analysis of flow cytometric data standardizes results and minimizes human error. A recent trial resulted in
“bioAffinity Technologies’ porphyrin-labeled compensation beads allow for accurate quantitation of TCPP fluorescence in cell populations stained with TCPP,” said bioAffinity Technologies Senior Vice President William Bauta, Ph.D., the inventor of the compensation beads. “This work is part of our ongoing effort to bring major advances in the detection and treatment of cancer to the marketplace to improve survivability, reduce unnecessary procedures and lower healthcare costs.”
