What does Manta Instruments do?
Manta Instruments, is a developer of technology for characterizing nanoparticles. The startup commercializes scientific instruments which use breakthrough technology in order to characterize nanoparticles more efficiently than existing products. The existing instruments for characterizing nanoparticles are unable to measure samples with mixed nanoparticle sizes, adequately measure the nanoparticles concentration and reliable measure changes in size of the nanoparticles over time. Manta Instruments meets all these needs. Its breakthrough optical technology addresses all 3 of the above mentioned with a single instrument. Thus with these additional measurement capabilities, their customers can develop and manufacture products based on nanoparticles, in a better, faster and more profitable way.
How much Manta Instruments was funded?
Manta Instruments raised an undisclosed amount in Seed round on May 28th, 2015 from Triton Technology Fund.
What is next for Manta Instruments?
The undisclosed amount raised in the seed funding will be used by the company to accelerate commercialization of scientific instruments which measure nanoparticles more effectivvely than any other products available currently in the market for this job. After the closure of its seed round, this startup has built a core leadership team, was admitted into EvoNexus and has plans for launching its first product in the 2nd half of 2015.
More about Manta Instruments
Manta Instruments has its headquarters in La Jolla, California. Its team consists of original inventors of the technology from UC San Diego, Dr. Kuba Tatarkiewicz, Monette Karr, Dr. Dariusz Stramski and Dr. Rick Reynolds. It is commercializing scientific instruments which uses breakthrough technology for characterizing nanoparticles effectively. The company sells these equipment which accurately measures the nanoparticles concentration and size, directly to the consumer who use nanopartivles in their products and services. With these equipment customers can now have much better control over the development and manufacturing of nanoparticles used in their products and.
