澳大利亚是纳米技术研究领域的者,1987年悉尼大学和AMBRI Pty有限公司(一家悉尼生物技术公司)的一组澳大利亚科学家制出了世界上*台纳米仪。这种仪器体形极小,其部件仅为分子大小,还可以用来对人体内部做医疗检查,对污染物进行分析,或者用来支持微型计算机。AMBRI目前正致力于生物传感器的商业化,将它用作一种主要的医疗诊断工具。
AMBRI Limited has operated since the late 1990s as a technology development Company focused solely on commercializing its patented Ion Channel Switch (ICS) technology as the basis of new biosensor products for medical and industrial applications. In 2006 the Company broadened its strategy to include the acquisition of new businesses with revenue and profit streams.
AMBRI listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in August 2001(ASX code: ABI) and the funds raised then and in subsequent equity placements have been applied to an escalating R&D effort. After missing several major development milestones and experiencing serious budget overruns, the Company implemented cost reduction measures, most significantly in February 2005 and again in early 2006. The R&D effort in 2006, despite being very much scaled back, produced promising new opportunities for the biosensor technology, which are the subject of a scientific paper published in August 2007.
Other than biosensors for diabetes testing, biosensors generally have not achieved analyst predictions of billion dollar sales in medical, environmental and industrial testing applications. The contenders pursuing these new markets have so far struggled to overcome technical challenges, but the large commercial opportunities continue to inspire a very substantial industry effort to find technological breakthroughs.
To progress the AMBRI technology to a commercial ready biosensor platform requires skills and resources beyond AMBRI and so the Company has stopped its own R&D and is seeking to progress the commercialization effort only through an appropriate partnership.
Ambri shareholders can look forward to AMBRI emerging in the short term as a business that is revenue and profit generating, arising from the current M&A effort and in the longer term have further shareholder value uplift from partnership or license-out arrangements of the AMBRI biosensor technology.
