The first two products in the pipeline are novel diagnostic blood tests for tuberculosis and hepatitis B virus infections. The Company has developed a proprietary biomarker technology (ImmiPrint®) with potential to diagnose early onset of diseases, and to provide information as to how a disease is likely to develop and respond to particular drug treatments. The technology is based upon the profiling of a discrete subset of immune system proteins found in blood and other body fluids.
