Hememics Biotechnologies Inc
HeMemics has a desiccation technology that can be applied to many peptides, proteins, cell types and possibly thin tissues. We have a unique technology to preserve mammalian cells and other biologics in dried or partially dried format as shelf-stable products. Such biologics are easily rehydrated with water or other required buffer systems. The most exciting and promising feature of this technology is that both cells and proteins recovered and demonstrated normal functions upon rehydration
HeMemics is in a unique position to provide customized solution to clients that need to stabilize their products in dried/partially dried format, instead of liquid or frozen format, for ease of storage and transportation. To evaluate HeMemics technology, the company has made one its products, the desiccated red blood cells, commercially available for research evaluation purposes
