Bioinformatics
Making Sense of the Noise.
You've collected the RNA. You've amplified the targets. Now you have 48 distinct, overlapping fluorescence curves. Bioinformatics is the crucial translation layer that turns that raw, chaotic data into a single, actionable score.
Biology is Messy
A highly multiplexed transcriptomic assay (like a Biomeme/5 cartridge) measures up to 48 different mRNA targets simultaneously. As the amplification reaction runs, the instrument's optical sensors record the fluorescence of each target over time.
The output is a tangled web of 48 exponential curves. In a traditional laboratory, a highly trained molecular biologist sits at a computer, manually reviews these curves, sets thresholds, flags quality-control failures, and calculates expression ratios.
A combat medic in a field hospital doesn't have time for that.
Raw Fluorescence Data
The Translation Layer
Biomeme's cloud architecture replaces the laboratory technician with automated, proprietary algorithms.
Clean & Normalize
First, the software automatically subtracts optical background noise. Then, it compares the target gene expression against internal "housekeeping" genes to establish an objective, normalized baseline.
Algorithmic Scoring
The normalized data is fed into proprietary machine learning models. Instead of looking at individual genes, the algorithm looks at the ratio and relationship between dozens of genes simultaneously.
Actionable Output
The algorithm outputs a single, clear score. It translates "Gene X is up 300% and Gene Y is down 40%" into "This patient has an 85% probability of a bacterial infection."
Actionable Intelligence
The end-user never sees the raw data unless they want to. They see answers.
Our host response algorithms analyze immune system transcripts to distinguish bacterial from viral infections — delivering a result within a single clinical encounter.
Environmental surveillance panels process multiplexed signatures to instantly alert commanders of biological threats.
Metabolic and senescence algorithms translate thousands of raw data points across dozens of gene targets into an actionable biological age.
