Overview
DiagMetrics is an innovative diagnostics company developing a proprietary Mask-Based Diagnostic (MBD™) platform that collects exhaled breath condensate (EBC) for non-invasive testing. With a strong intellectual property portfolio including multiple issued and pending patents, the company is initially targeting rapid screening for tuberculosis and respiratory viruses (SARS/Flu/RSV) using lateral flow assays and advanced biosensors. Backed by NIH RADx funding and a partnership with MilliporeSigma, DiagMetrics aims to democratize diagnostics by making testing as simple as breathing, with applications extending to chronic disease monitoring and oncology.
Technology Platform
Patented Mask-Based Diagnostic (MBD™) platform for non-invasive collection of exhaled breath condensate (EBC). The technology is adaptable to multiple detection formats, from low-cost lateral flow assays to multiplexed semiconductor biosensors, enabling testing for a wide range of respiratory and systemic biomarkers.

Risk Factors
Competitive Landscape
DiagMetrics operates in the emerging breath diagnostics space, competing with companies developing breathalyzer-style devices for volatile organic compound (VOC) analysis. Its unique differentiator is the mask-based collection of EBC (liquid), rather than gas, which may allow access to a different set of biomarkers. It faces intense competition from entrenched players using sputum, blood, and nasal swab samples for respiratory disease diagnosis.
