HUBBARD, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NanoLogix (PINK SHEETS: NNLX), an innovator in the accelerated detection and identification of microorganisms, announced today that the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston is enrolling 300 patients in an ongoing clinical trial to study the speed and accuracy of NanoLogix technology. The trial is designed to compare NanoLogix technology to current methods in use for detection and identification of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) in pregnant women. Initial results obtained last spring at UTHSC-Houston show the technology identifies GBS in two to six hours. This is 8 to 24 times faster than the conventional methods of PCR (DNA sequencing) and traditional petri culturing, either of which can take 48 hours or more.
