Theranos was like a dream before its controversy! Elizabeth Anne Holmes 19 year old (then) formed the company 13 years ago! The company introduced ‘Edison’ which used only a few drops of blood to perform multiple tests, instead of the vials-full most people part with when they go for a blood test. That same device and its testing method became the center of a controversy. But things were different for Elizabeth Holmes, it was the company’s much-awaited first presentation to the scientific community at the American Association for Clinical Chemistry’s conference in Philadelphia.

Speaking at the the annual meeting for the American Association for Clinical Chemistry, Holmes said the new machine — called the Theranos Sample Processing Unit, or “miniLab” — was the size of a computer printer, and will be able to run a battery of tests on just 160 microliters of blood taken from a pricked finger. She showed clinical data that detailed 11 tests miniLab can run on blood samples, including one for the Zika virus, but the company says that it can run up to 40 tests. Read More !
