About
Who we are
Axbio Biotechnology

As a leading global life sciences company, AXBIO is dedicated to providing accessible multi-omics research solutions for life sciences and clinical medicine using cutting-edge semiconductor technology.


Established in Silicon Valley in 2016, AXBIO specializes in Bio-CMOS chips. Leveraging this technology, we have developed fourth-generation nanopore sequencers, multiplex nucleic acid analysis systems. Our nanopore sequencers utilize advanced electrochemical sensing, biochemical, and chemical synthesis technologies to overcome current sequencing limitations, offering cost-effective, long reads, high accuracy, high throughput, and real-time sequencing, which meet diverse research and clinical application needs across various fields and scenarios.
