During December Gothenburg Bioanalytical Webinar, Nexus’ project coordinator Dr. Marcella Chiari, National Research Council of Italy presented the project in a lecture called: “Innovative solutions for extracellular vesicle (EV) isolation and analysis”.
Professor Chiari’s speech focused on the importance of exosomes as biomarkers of the future and on the challenges involved in their analysis, due to their size, heterogeneity and complexity of the matrix where they resides.
After an overview of the state of the art in terms of exosome separation – a fundamental step for their subsequential analysis – new developments of tools and technologies for EV analysis in clinical settings featuring integration of purification and analysis in a single instrument were addressed, by presenting both Nexus and the project it derived from, Index.
