CHROMOLOGIC LLC — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase I: SBIR PHASE I AUTOMATED SAMPLE CONTAINMENT AND ENRICHMENT FOR NANOPORE SEQUENCING USING TRA
CHROMOLOGIC LLC — SBIR Phase I award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Phase I SBIR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from National Aeronautics and Space Administration in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $224,988. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Tagged technology areas: Space & Satellite, Sensors & Sensor Fusion. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
Chromologic LLC won a NASA SBIR Phase I award to create an automated system called ASCENT that uses traps to contain and enrich samples for nanopore sequencing. This technology could help small businesses develop tools for analyzing biological materials during space missions.
