Máster Diagnostica : successful companies that have opted for innovation with the CDTI
Master Diagnostica develops kits for the detection of oncological and infectious diseases. It is part of the Vitro group.
Vitro was established 20 years ago as a marketer of clinical products and biomedical research, over time the company has been committed to innovation and has begun to develop its own products to become one of the leading Spanish companies in the field of in vitro diagnostics. According to Juan Jimenez, CEO of Master Diagnostica, this has been possible thanks to the support they have obtained from the CDTI, an organisation that they consider to be key to the development of their company,
Among its numerous lines of research, the company started 6 years ago, with the help of the CDTI, a new technological project whose objective is the design and development of a system for the simultaneous arrest of different bacterial species responsible for tick-borne diseases.
In addition, in the field of oncology, it participates in a consortium of public bodies developing an expert diagnostic system supported by the programme Feder Interconecta.
