Enzymatic measurement spinout Zymoptiq has formally launched on the back of research from Lille Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics and Nanotechnology and is now considering raising funding.

Regional tech transfer office Satt Nord has licensed a France-based spinout called Zymoptiq to commercialise a technique for measuring enzymatic activity originating from the Lille Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics and Nanotechnology (IEMN).
Laboratories study enzymatic activity as a way of monitoring cellular activity and the purification of enzyme proteins; gleaning crucial information on how enzymes – substances released by organisms to spark specific biochemical reactions –  relate with substrates, biological inhibitors and drug candidates.
By exploiting micro and…
