Abstract:
Printed Semiconductor Technology Turns "Chip in a Lab" Into "Lab on a Chip"

NANOIDENT CTO to Speak About Printed Sensor Applications at the Organic Electronics Conference 2007

LINZ, Austria | Posted on September 19th, 2007

DI Franz Padinger, CTO for NANOIDENT Technologies AG, will speak about "Semiconductor 2.0: Products and Perspectives" at the Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition 2007. He will explain how printed semiconductor technology has taken mobile analytics and diagnostics completely out of the lab, enabling the development of cost-effective, highly sensitive mobile testing solutions for the life sciences market.

NANOIDENT Technologies AG is the technology leader in the development and manufacture of printed semiconductor-based sensor solutions. One of its market-focused subsidiaries, BIOIDENT Technologies Inc., leverages this core technology to deliver lab-on-a-chip systems for mobile analysis and diagnosis, enabling cost-effective real-time detection of multiple chemical and biological parameters. BIOIDENT offers complete solutions for medical, environmental and chemical/biological testing applications.

WHO:

DI Franz Padinger, CTO, NANOIDENT Technologies AG

Mr. Padinger, a world-renowned scientist in the field of organic
semiconductor photophysics, photochemistry and photovoltaics,
developed the world's first plastic solar cell and is responsible for
NANOIDENT's R&D activities. Prior to co-founding NANOIDENT, he served
for two years as the CTO of Konarka Austria, where he worked with Dr.
Alan Heeger, Nobel Laureate and inventor of organic semiconductors.

WHEN:

Tuesday, September 25, 2007
2:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. CET

WHERE:

Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition 2007
Sheraton Frankfurt Hotel and Towers, Frankfurt, Germany

The 5th annual Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition is hosted
by cintelliq, a leading analyst for the organic electronics industry,
and by the Organic Electronics Association (OE-A), the key industry
association for organic electronics. The conference covers a broad
range of topics, from applications to materials, equipment and process
technology, and draws scientists, engineers, manufacturers and
investors in organic semiconductor technologies and organic
electronics.

WHY:

NANOIDENT's unique expertise with printed optoelectronics allows a
photodetector to be printed directly onto the lab-on-a-chip, greatly
increasing system sensitivity while significantly decreasing system
cost and complexity. As a result, affordable mobile analytics and
diagnostics are available for a wide range of applications, from
medical diagnosis to environmental testing to the detection of
chemical and biological agents, providing real-time, point-of-use
results to enable faster response to disease or contamination.
