Cell Separation Device

In Collaboration with the University of Liverpool and Harman Technology Ltd, Optima developed a rare cell separation device.

There is an increased demand for cell based therapies, however identifying and sorting such cells was extremely difficult. Using a technique which utilised light-emitting photosensitivity, targeting specific cells such as stem cells is possible.

Optima provided design engineering expertise to develop the laboratory based process into a device with the potential for commercialisation. Using computer modelling and physical prototyping, Optima completed the two year project on time, within budget and meeting their milestones
