New Advanced Technology Reaches the Market

Indianapolis, IN, November 21, 2006 -- Life science company Prosolia, Inc. began shipping its OmniSpray product for mass spectrometry this month. OmniSpray has applications in biological imagining, homeland security, drug development, environmental science and industrial surface chemistry.

Prosolia Chairman Peter Kissinger commented, “It is extremely satisfying to have the first units go out the door after several years of research and product development. This is a real win for life sciences in Indiana, as Prosolia has been enthusiastically supported by Inproteo and the 21st Century Fund, with great support from BioCrossroads. The eureka moment behind this development occurred in the research laboratories of Purdue University chemistry professor Graham Cooks, and his group continues to lead the way. Prosolia’s Kevin Boscacci has taken this company from the Purdue Life Sciences Business Plan Competition to shipping product!”

Prosolia is a company focused on advanced mass spectrometry technology with special emphasis on proteomics. The company has laboratories in Indianapolis at the IUETC and also in West Lafayette, Indiana. Mass spectrometry is a means of separating, identifying and quantitating chemical substances in complex mixtures such as biological and environmental samples.
