 We follow up Gideon Eden's elevator pitch for BioLumix with a few clarification questions:

  • Competitors vary by segment. In larger segments, like food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, BioLumix is competing with other rapid testing technologies. In nutraceuticals, BioLumix is competing against external labs.
  • FDA's testing mandate for nutraceuticals is rather loosely defined. These companies are mandated to test but the precise tests themselves are left to the company to justify.
  • A nutraceutical can easily run 100's of tests per day.  These companies have multiple products and each product can require multiple tests.  For instance, a company with 20 products, each requiring 5 tests per day, would consume 100 test vials per day.
