The diagnosis of Parkinson's is mainly based on patients' medical history and clinical examination. In some cases Parkinson's disease can be difficult to diagnose with early signs and symptoms being dismissed as the effects of normal aging.
BioShai is developing PDx, a simple blood test for the early diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease. The blood test can be combined with other clinical data to provide a more complete diagnosis to help physicians decide on the best course of treatment.
PDx is based on the measurement of the level of expression of a set of genes. Gene expression is a dynamic process affected by stress, diet, and health leading to dramatic changes in the amount of messenger RNA molecules and protein in the human body over the course of our lives.
Expected to be on the market in 2017.
Innovative treatment for "Dry Eye Syndrome" based on non-invasive magnetic stimulation technology.
It is a known fact that one in 25 patients contracts a healthcare-related bacterial infection during a hospital stay. Using our unique patented process and materials to achieve a long term antibacterial and antibiofilm properties, we have successfully achieved up to 8 log reduction of MARSA, KPC, E. Coli and other resistant bacteria – within minutes. Because the mode of operation is not based on leaching of the coating, we are able to achieve high antibacterial efficacy, over a long period of time.
NanoSono Ltd. (NSC Ltd.) is in the key position to offer a cost-effective solution to a soon-to-be standardized market. In the near future, medical devices, fabrics that are potentially infection causes will require to gain anti-bacterial capabilities to be allowed within patient environments. The most effective way to protect the patients’ and the staffs’ environment is by avoiding the infection in the first place, preferably by eradicating the bacteria from the devices and the equipment that comes in contact with the patients and the hospital stuff. In addition, we make sure the patients’ environment, such as operating rooms, is as sterile as possible, we are also focused on lowering the risk of infection by making “carrier” materials within the patients’ direct environment such as robes, linens etc. anti-bacterial.

Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy disease, stems from prolonged increase in intraocular pressure (IOP), resulting in a progressive retinal ganglion cell, axonal loss, visual field defects and eventually blindness, because of the permanent cellular and neuronal damage in the eye.
NeurOptic Company is developing a new therapeutic strategy for glaucoma, based on approved drug, indicated as therapy of neurodegenerative disease, which is a different class from the drug classes currently used for the treatment of glaucoma. Pre-clinical studies showed that the novel topical treatment exerted a significant effect on high levels of IOP and may prevent neuronal damage in the eye.
