Project Description:
FloCync has developed an innovative menstrual blood collection system with integrated filtration technology that enables non-invasive health monitoring and diagnostics research. Our novel solution combines a specially designed menstrual cup with dual-membrane filtration and a “click-it” vacutainer mechanism that preserves critical biomarkers by separating samples immediately at collection, before clotting occurs.
Initially targeting research institutions and clinical trials, FloCync standardizes menstrual blood collection to accelerate biomarker discovery for conditions like endometriosis and PCOS. The goal of the project is to address diagnostic delays affecting millions of women globally.
Beyond research applications, FloCync will expand to consumer diagnostics, empowering women to monitor chronic conditions at home through lateral flow assays, like pregnancy tests but for disease biomarkers. By transforming a discarded biological fluid into valuable health data, FloCync is building the infrastructure for the next era of women’s health innovation.
