Bring Molecular Testing Out of the Lab
Built for the Real World
Water Bear Bio’s Extract-and-Store is engineered for environments where traditional extraction fails: rural clinics, global health programs, mobile labs, surveillance networks, and decentralized research.
It’s molecular biology - without the lab.
Electricity-free RNA/DNA extraction and stabilization, anywhere.
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed a major bottleneck in molecular diagnostics: sample preparation. Demand surged for nucleic acid extraction across diverse sample types, high-throughput pipelines, and resource-limited settings—but the underlying workflows never caught up.
Most leading extraction kits still rely on bench-top instruments, stable electricity, and cold-chain logistics. These systems were designed decades ago for centralized labs, not for today’s distributed, global, and time-sensitive testing needs.
Extract-and-Store brings the lab outdoors.
