bitBiome

bitBiome, a spin-off from Waseda University, was established in November 2018. Its proprietary bit-MAP® platform is the world's only single-cell genomic analysis technology platform dedicated to microorganisms. Using this platform, unknown microorganisms can be analyzed quickly, comprehensively, and accurately without the need for cell isolation, cultivation, or the complex data processing typically required in conventional microbiome studies.bitBiome provides high-quality microbial genomic data from various types of samples and analyzes genomic data in a flexible manner. By strategically integrating its single-cell sequencing technology, bitBiome will offer next-generation microbiome analysis to elucidate complex microbial functions. Additionally, bitBiome uses its original microbial genome database to provide research partners and customers with new insights relevant to their R&D projects. bitBiome offers this single-cell genomic analysis technology to academic and corporate partners primarily in the pharmaceutical and agricultural fields for next-generation microbiome analysis to unlock the potential of microorganisms.
