DNA testing is an incredibly powerful technology for diagnosing infectious diseases, personalizing drugs to your genetics (precision medicine), detecting bacteria and viruses in food and water, testing your pets, and many other applications.
Right now, most DNA tests are performed in centralized labs and results take days or weeks. We're on a mission to revolutionize diagnostics—we believe everyone should have access to fast, accurate, and affordable DNA results.
In every human, the animals we love, the food we eat, the water we drink, and even in the air we breathe. Spartan's DNA diagnostic platform is a solution that knows no boundaries.
Spartan has created the world's smallest DNA analyzer called the Spartan Cube. You can literally hold it in the palm of your hand. It provides fast and accurate results based on Nobel Prize-winning chemistry called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
Spartan's technology has been approved by the FDA and is developed and manufactured according to an ISO 13485 quality system. Our products have been validated by expert organizations such as the CDC and Mayo Clinic. Our customers include hospitals and Fortune 500 companies. Learn more
