 PROFILE
Nanogen combines microelectronics with molecular biology to test samples containing electrically charged biomolecules. The company's first product, NanoChip, allows molecules (such as DNA) to be analyzed as they are directed by electrical charge to designated sites on a microchip. Nanogen markets its system to customers involved in genomics and biomedical research and is developing other applications. Hitachi manufactures NanoChip's components and will market the system in Japan. Nanogen has collaborative alliances with such firms as Becton, Dickinson and Elan, which owns about 5% of the firm; it has a grant from the Defense Department for biological warfare defense applications.
