德国Olympus Advalytix    
Advalytix公司位于德国慕尼黑，于2000年11月由Infineon Technologies和EJ Ventures共同出资建立。其核心技术―微流体技术建立在表面声波（SAW）和慕尼黑大学纳米技术原理的基础上，能使少至1nl的液体产生高效搅动。该公司从2003年4月开始推广的基于SAW技术的杂交仪，已被用户认可并得到广泛应用。
2005年4月，Advalytix公司被Olympus生命科学公司收购。

Advalytix (headquartered in Munich, Germany, US office in Concord, MA) was founded in 2000 and acquired by Olympus in 2005. We are now the Advalytix team within Olympus Life Science Research Europa GmbH.
