T2 Biosystems

T2 Biosystems is a company that is known for developing products that treat life altering diseases. The solutions that they have developed were created with the purpose of saving lives and reducing the healthcare costs for patients and caregivers.

Some of the products and solutions that T2 Biosystems has developed includes their T2 Biosystems, T2MR, T2Bacteria Panel, T2Candida Panel, and T2Dx. They are also developing their T2Direct Diagnostics, T2HemoStat, T2Plex, T2Cauris, T2Resistance, and T2SARS-CoV-2 in their pipeline.

Innovating solutions to treat against diseases such as sepsis, hemostasis, and bacterial and Lyme disease is possible through the company's T2MR method. T2MR is a method that utilizes miniaturized magnetic resonance technology to measure the reaction of water molecules that are present around a magnetic field. The method does not require purification or extraction of target molecules in order to identify those target molecules.

The number of cells that is required for the T2MR to detect target cells or organism in a blood culture can be as low as 1 CFU/mL, as opposed to the standard range of 10,000 to 1,000,000 CFUs/mL. This property of the method allows the T2MR to detect low levels of pathogens in whole blood.
