Rapid detection of phage‑amplified protein signatures compatible with established clinical microbiology workflows. No reliance on colony monoculture: Diagnostic phage amplification is compatible with polymicrobial specimens
There is an urgent need for more rapid tests to identify the causative organisms responsible for bacterial infections as well as drug effectiveness and dose.
The company received a $984,000 Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), scheduled to begin in September 2024.
The company received a $249,500 Early-Stage Capital and Retention Grant from the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT), which commenced in April 2024.
Cobio is developing a next‑generation, phage‑amplified diagnostic platform for rapid bacterial identification, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and minimum inhibitory concentration determination directly from clinical specimens.
