Current focus
finding new biomarkers and confirming their clinical and laboratory relevance
using nano and micro-structured surfaces in biomedicine and pushing the boundaries of what is possible
In the background, we are building new products that can be distributed in the market due to their unique properties.
Latest news
Lab On Card, a venture of GeneSpector, won a competition and presented the development in BioEquity 2026. In contrary, SeveriDx, next GeneSpector's venture, also won a competition and got the possibility to present the latest development in BioVaria 2026.

Sample Collection
We offer two innovative collection tubes. First of which we have developed a unique DNA/RNA transport and storage medium that immediately inactivates the viruses ensuring safety of your laboratory personnel. viRNAtrap™ Collection Tubes preserve the genetic integrity of samples at ambient temperature for weeks. Second of which is RESALIVA™ utilises an absorption sponge to collect saliva samples which is easy-to-use, pain-free, and comfortable.
viRNAtrap™ CE-IVDR Extraction Kit
Our fast and robust nucleic acid extraction is based on magnetic beads technology. viRNAtrap™ CE-IVDR Extraction Kit can be used for manual and automated nucleic acid purification on any open platform. The kit consists of 4 bottles not requiring controlled temperature storage. The isolation process takes 10 minutes only and enables true high-throughput extraction. The kit is CE-IVDR certified.
Pregnancy-Related Complications Diagnostics
GeneSpector offers a groundbreaking method for predicting pregnancy-related complications by analyzing blood samples during the first trimester (10th-13th week). This approach effectively predicts conditions like preeclampsia, and other pregnanc-related complications, significantly improving early intervention and prenatal care. It also identifies undiagnosed chronic hypertension, a key risk factor for complications, offering a high success rate in managing and preventing severe maternal and fetal outcomes.
Multiple Myeloma Diagnostics by NGS
NGS sequencing solution for various diagnostic applications feasible in any laboratory. Currently developing a kit for diagnosing multiple myeloma, a malignant bone marrow disorder, this innovative approach uses a custom set of oligonucleotides in a well-defined NGS panel followed by bioinformatics analysis to determine the disease cause directly. We also offer custom development of sequencing kits for other genetic-based disorder diagnostics and research.
Now, implemented in a Faculty Hospital in Ostrava in the Czech Republic.
Severity Predictor of Respiratory Infections
A diagnostic method predicting the severity of infectious disease symptoms days in advance. Using PCR-based detection of specific biomarkers in nasopharyngeal swabs, it identifies high-risk patients early, enabling timely therapy. Applicable to viral, bacterial, and fungal infections, it also monitors treatment efficacy. Optimized for large-scale testing. To develop the methodology and deliver a certified and proven test, GeneSpector decided to found a spin-off company called SeveriDx (www.severidx.com).
ELISA-based Diagnostics of Hereditary Kidney Diseases
A reliable, simple diagnostic solution for hereditary kidney disease ADTKD (Autosomal Dominant Tubulo-Interstitial Kidney Disease). Utilizing a specially developed ELISA-based method to detect the MUC1 protein in blood plasma, this cost-effective technique allows for comprehensive screening and monitoring of disease progression and therapy efficiency. Optimized for large-scale testing, this method provides an accessible alternative to expensive genetic testing and aims to be certified and marketed under a license-based collboration for a global use.
Lab-on-Card Technology
Imagine a world where clinical diagnostics is done with nothing but a simple card. GeneSpector offers a groundbreaking solution using passive chips with nanofluidic structures for complex sample work-up, analyte detection, and result visualization. This method, executable anywhere—even in field conditions—provides robust, fast results with a simple readout at a low price. To develop the technology, GeneSpector in collaboration with IQS Group decided to found a spin-off company in 2024 called Lab On Card (www.laboncard.com).
Our team
We are a small and highly-dedicated team working with variety of partners to ensure we drive all the projects from early idea to patients. It requires the best individuals having the knowledge in the industry as well as strong management and communication skills.

Putting rapid clinical results into the hands of patients 18/01/23
The timely and accurate diagnosis of disease is necessary for treatments that maximize the patients’ survival and quality of life. For this, an ever-growing number of disease-related biomarkers is monitored, usually with expensive instruments. These tests may not be accessible at routine doctor’s appointments or even in emergency situations, as samples need to be sent for testing to large centralized laboratories, adding cost and delays of several days or more and the need for repeated visits.
Major breakthrough in the fight against AIDS 18/01/23
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, better known under the abbreviation AIDS, represents a spectrum of medical conditions caused by an infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV is primarily transmitted via unprotected sex and contaminated hypodermic needles and targets white blood cells causing a gradual shutdown of host’s immune system. Such immunocompromised person is susceptible to a wide variety of secondary infections—which would otherwise pose no danger for a healthy individual—leading to the development of AIDS and, eventually, death.
Saving lives months ahead: prediction of risk of pregnancy complications 18/01/23
Complications in pregnancy affect 5 to 10% of women and can not only threaten the life or health of the mother and her child, but also cause irreversible changes in their metabolism and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems. However, current methods can only predict them with very limited success, based on the mother’s medical history, i.e., diseases occurring in the family, ultrasound and biochemical examination. Undetected and unmanaged changes can then manifest themselves years later in the form of heart attack, stroke, intellectual disability, diabetes, or metabolic disorders, so early prediction is the key to their successful management or even prevention.
