Qidni Labs
Developer of a portable, dialysate-free blood purification platform that uses disposable sorbent cartridges and a miniaturized, battery-capable dialysis device for extracorporeal removal of uremic toxins from whole blood. The platform is positioned for use in low-resource, emergency, mobile and home settings and includes cloud-based remote monitoring and IoT integration. Preclinical animal studies and pilot human studies have been conducted; regulatory approvals are pending.

Disposable sorbent cartridge for extracorporeal blood purification
A single-use cartridge containing sorbent materials designed to selectively remove uremic toxins and target solutes from large volumes of whole blood, enabling dialysis without conventional dialysate or large-scale water purification.
Miniaturized portable dialysis device (battery-capable)
A compact dialysis system engineered to perform full treatment sessions with rechargeable battery power and to operate without connection to tap water or large water purification equipment.
Qidni Dialysis Technology
A dialysis machine designed as a clinic in a machine, removing the need for water purification and electricity infrastructure, with a small size that brings real portability to the dialysis market.
Qartridge™
A proprietary platform technology that provides high capacity for selective absorption and removal of uremic toxins and other solutes from large volumes of whole blood, eliminating the need for large quantities of water in dialysis.
