Meteor Biotech, LLC: At the forefront of spatial biology, Meteor Biotech delivers cutting-edge cell sorting with CosmoSort to empower high-resolution omics discovery.
Market:
Spatial omics lacks tools for precise cell sorting with spatial context. Meteor Biotech solves this with CosmoSort, enabling full-length multi-omics from defined regions. The spatial biology market, valued at $305M in 2020, is projected to reach over $1.4B by 2030, driven by demand in oncology, neuroscience, and pathology.
Technology:
We use our proprietary SLACS technology in CosmoSort to precisely isolate single cells or regions from tissue while preserving spatial context. Unlike imaging-only or bulk methods, we enable full-length RNA, DNA, and proteomic analysis from spatially-resolved samples—bridging high-resolution selection with multi-omics depth.
Advantages:
- Infrared laser, no-damage sorting
- Spatially precise cell sorting
- Sorting speed: 1 sec/target
- Enables novel biomarker discovery
- Compatible with full-length sequencin
Development Stage:
- Marketing stage
