Generic overview of KODE technology - a unique biosurface modification technology. Firstly a biosurface (biological surface) is the outside layer on everything alive and is used by cells, viruses and bugs to communicate with each other and their environment (which includes us). Biosurfaces are also what the body recognizes to fight infections or what infections use to recognize us. KODE technology is like a very special paint that can either add a biological surface to something not living or paint living surfaces with both biological and non biological components. For example the technology can be used to paint a biological substance used for detecting a disease onto plastic or glass, which can then be used in blood testing. Or it could be used to paint a glow-in-the-dark label (fluorescent marker) onto cells and viruses, so a researcher could watch where a cell or virus goes in the body. In simple terms it can add virtually any biological or non biological material onto almost any living or synthetic surface, in just a few minutes. The methodology for use is very simple, we simple contact a cell, virus or surface with a solution containing the KODE molecules and they spontaneously self insert, attach or assemble on the surface nothing more is required other than simple contact. Once on the surface they dont wash off. KODE technology is a unique way of modifying a surface. Firstly no other technology can modify virtually any surface with virtually any compound. Secondly, users have total control over the amount of material they want applied to a surface. Thirdly the constructs dissolve in water so are biologically harmless when modifying living cells or creatures. And finally the speed of modification is only seconds for a synthetic surface or less than an hour for a live surface. KODE technology can in some instances be used instead of genetic engineering the major difference is the modification with a gene takes months where modification by KODE technology takes minutes, and KODE is environmentally safe.
