Bullboard - Stock Discussion Forum Sixth Wave Innovations Inc SIXWF

Sixth Wave Innovations Inc. is a Canada-based nanotechnology company with patented technologies. The Company is focused on the extraction and detection of target substances at the molecular level using specialized molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). The Company’s product brands include AMIPs, IXOS and Affinity. The IXOS is a line of extraction polymers formulated for deployment in the gold... see more

this is the problem

A biosensor is a sensor that uses biological selectivity to limit its perception to particular key molecules and can be defined as an analytical device possessing a biological or biologically derived sensing element integrated with or associated closely with a physicochemical transducer. In the future it is likely that a number of key developments in therapeutic monitoring and intelligent drug delivery will rely on real-time feedback information in order to deliver an appropriate response. However due to issues of integration and the fragility and unreliability of the bio-molecule, biosensors are currently unable to fulfil this role.

What the claim in the last post is that they have been able to observe the virus being trapped.

How much will it cost to manufacture a MIP and incorporate into a mask? Margins? Rapid LFA tests can cost less than $1. Might be less expensive to buy N95 masks and test every day, than what they are proposing. Is their MIP mask more effective at trapping particles than a N95?
Comment by maybe111 on Feb 05, 2021 4:08pm
The MIP is made by the tonne.  It needs to be laid on a breathable substrate, many sq meters of it, and they cut into smaller squares for insertion into a mask.  The cost is certaily less than $1.00 and is reusable until the virus is identified.  It is not a one use item. When the virus is captured, and not many are required, the MIP/substrate changes colour. The N98 does not ...more

Just get it done. Then an earlier post, (will have to look back) stated SIXW is making (2) Affinity systems per month with a projected $ 100,000.00/month revenue stream. Where is that reported? Gluckman has not provided license revenues. All we do is burn through the cash.

up2005 really now.  You sit back and complain.  If you or one of you family get Covid, what would you do?  When a key member of Six Wave gets covid just before the acceptance meeting  and the meeting is cancelled, what would you do? Just keep your pants on guy.  People have more to do than you and have their troubles too. Be a little compassionate.  You will only ...more

What's your source for less than $1? Manufacturing MIPs of the necessary quality and consistency isn't easy. The masks can't be reusable unless they can be safely autoclaved. N95 do trap 95% of particles > .3 micron, in an electrostatic filter.  This group is also testing MIPs for COVID.  COVID-19 nanoMIP — MIP Diagnostics (mip-dx.com) Canadian-made mask deactivates 99% ...more

Sir I am amazed at your lack of knowledge of Sixth Wave.  Their ability to create very accurate and cost effective MIPS is shown by their manufacture for extraction of gold and cannaboids. This IS their skill and expertise. Have you seen the video of the MIP itself?  The size of the trap need not be large.  The I95 does not "trap" the virus but simply "block" ...more

You sir, are a goof.
Comment by Bvukmanic on Feb 08, 2021 10:22am
Gold and cannabinoids are very different than viruses. They have to test against interference molecules, etc. and adhere to a completely different set of standards for the FDA. Size of the trap? I don't even think you know how MIPs are made. Oh, made by the tonne. That's all you know. Reused until activated? What about virus particles that it doesn't catch, or particles on the ...more  
Comment by maybe111 on Feb 08, 2021 12:51pm
why then are they working with the University of Alberta?  If I am the goof, as you say, and I am quite willing to accept that fact,  But your response suggests to me it is you that are predisposed to something that is wrong, not I. Might you be the goof? Is their CEO a goof also?

Maybe111, where are you going with your ramblings. People get Covid and it washes past them, others get it and they die. That's life. I have clients that have had heart attacks and survived, others have died. Again that's life. Sixw has dragged out their MIPS nanotechnology revolutionary solution for a longtime with little to show for it. They have to get their IXOS or Affinity into a ...more

Which drives most fear or greed, up2005? We will see.  I know that this is a brand new technology and existant process providers would not permit it an easy access into the field as it just might displace them.  Politics man. Under normal circumstances the FDA would take 20 years to consider it.  Maybe not now. It seems, as of this morning, that the folks at Sixth Wave have now ...more

Forget the mask idea. The AIMPs test strips are the solution. Anyone know if it works with samples  of breath, mucus swab, blood, etc?   
Comment by lscfa on Feb 09, 2021 11:32am
  "AMIPs changes the calculus and has the promise of being immune to relatively minor mutations of the outer shell of the Virus since it is not based on antigen/antibody binding," said Dr. Gluckman."Moreover, multiple variants or multiple different viruses can potentially be tested on a single test strip providing greater flexibility and lower overall costs to the ...more
