Big Eye Diagnostics Inc. is located in San Diego, CA. It has offices, a wet laboratory for research and development (Biosafety Level 2), and access to a reel-to-reel dispenser and a laminator for high-throughput manufacturing. Our sweet spot is to produce between 100,000 and a million tests per year, though we can operate outside this range. The ability to transition directly from in-house research and development to manufacturing is a big advantage in ensuring timely commercialization of a new test. Big Eye Diagnostics operates with the highest standards and is ISO-13485 certified.
So what about our name, you ask? You’re not the first one, understandably, but the story is too long. Suffice it to say that eyes are what allows you to see, and we like the idea of a big eye that can see everything, because that is how a perfect diagnostic is supposed to work. Moreover, eyes allow for beautiful photographs that keep us in perpetual awe in front of the diversity and perfection of Nature.
We thank underwater photographer Florence Van Gaever for sharing the picture of the mantis shrimp which is on almost every banner of this website.
