Nanosphere, Inc.

Adding one more nanotech stock to the list: Nanosphere, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSPH)
As in Google Finance description:

Nanosphere, Inc. is engaged on developing, manufacturing and marketing a molecular diagnostics platform, the Verigene System, that enables genomic and protein testing on a single platform. The Company’s nanoparticle technology seeks to simplify the ability to perform molecular diagnostic tests, achieve ultra-sensitive protein detection, provide the ability to multiplex, or run multiple tests at the same time on the same sample, and to enable the development of test assays to be performed on a single platform. Nanosphere is developing diagnostic tests for a variety of medical conditions including cancer, neurodegenerative, cardiovascular and infectious diseases, as well as pharmaco-genomics, or tests for personalized medicine.

Even if this nanotech stock recovered from it's lows back in March, it still looks Bearish, with a very light volume, remember this is still a Micro-Cap Company.

Nanotech DNA Building Blocks

The field of DNA nanotechnology has literally gained another dimension.

Using pieces of DNA like so many Legos, researchers made a series of complex, three-dimensional structures. The technique could eventually be used to design custom-shaped, nano-scale drug-delivery systems and diagnostic devices.

“Imagine that you could encode different charge patterns on your Lego bricks, so that they only fit together in a very specific manner,” said molecular biologist William Shih of Harvard Medical School, co-author of a study Wednesday in Nature. “We make linear sequences of DNA, throw them into a pot, and let them find each other.”

Nanotechnologists like Shih use the double-stranded encoder of life’s instructions not for its information-carrying capacity, but the predictable binding tendencies of its four chemical base units. Adenine automatically links to thymine, and cytosine to guanine — A to T, and C to G.
