  • New Biotech Startups

MxT Biotech, a Korea University spin-out, aims to transform cancer immunotherapy, cellular engineering and genome editing with its patented non-viral genome editing technology.

The Hydroporator™ is a non-viral microfluidic platform for highly effective delivery of external cargos such as plasmid DNA, mRNA, proteins, CRISPR-Cas9 RNPs, and nanoparticles into primary cells. The Hydroporator™ technology enables high delivery efficiency, easy operation, low cost, high scalability, minimal cell perturbation (i.e., preserved cell function and viability), and cell type/cargo insensitive delivery. The platform is said to be free from the challenges from viral transduction, lipofection and electroporation, establishing a new avenue to accelerate cancer immunotherapy, cellular engineering and genome editing.

MXT Biotech was founded in March 2021 by Professor Aram Jung of Korea University. In May 2022, Mxt raised KRW ₩5 billion (~USD $4M) in a Series A funding from BNK Venture Capital, DAYLI Partners, Hyundai Investment Partners, We Ventures Partners, and AJU IB Investment.
