Summary
The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to provide a contactless single cell micromanipulation tool using modulated sound waves. This technology will improve single cell handling. The proposed innovation allows handling of delicate biological materials of various sizes. This project will automate various procedures within an embryology lab to decrease costs. The successful development and commercialization of the proposed acoustic tool will increase procedure reliability and embryologists’ productivity. This Small Business
