Pria Diagnostics

Pria Diagnostics was a medical technology company that specialized in miniaturized advanced diagnostics using microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and microfluidics. Based in Menlo Park, California, the company developed the Element home fertility-testing device, which provided a rapid and private method for men to assess sperm motility and concentration. The company's core technology platform, NanoFL, utilized high-sensitivity fluorescence detection for a variety of diagnostic applications, including infectious diseases and autoimmune disorders. Pria Diagnostics aimed to transition complex laboratory tests into portable, point-of-care formats for consumer and clinical use. In August 2009, the company's intellectual property and assets were acquired by QuantRx Biomedical for approximately $725,000.
