Our innovative designs provide superior delivery, so scientists can achieve greater outcomes, save time, and reduce costs while they advance human health.
Accelerating Biomedical Research Progress Through Precision
AkriVita is speeding up groundbreaking discoveries - with a tiny needle! AkriVita’s mission is to provide increased precision, customization, and reliability in microinjection so biomedical scientists and health care practitioners can achieve breakthroughs while reducing costs through innovative designs.
For over 50 years, microinjection has been crucial in life sciences, enabling groundbreaking research and clinical applications.
But technology hasn't kept pace with the demands of modern research
Current Industry Challenges
-
The design of today’s microcapillary needles often requires experiments to be repeated 3-5 times, leading to wasted time and money.
-
Today’s research microcapillary needles are made of glass and opened manually in the lab, producing unique tip shapes and sizes, which requires each needle to be calibrated before and during experiments.
-
Glass microcapillary needles also lack contrast, making the tip hard to accurately track, resulting in missed targets and potential damage to cells.
-
As the single opening gradually clogs with each injection, the volume of material delivered varies, causing inconsistent results, so scientists have to recalibrate needles and repeat their experiments.
All these factors contribute to inconsistent results, the need for recalibration, and repeat of experiments leading to wasted time and money. AkriVita microcapillary needles eliminate the need for time-consuming recalibrations, and significantly reduce downtime and costs.
