About us
Dyneval is on a mission to democratise measurement of subvisible particle with nanoscale sensitivity from farm to pharma.  Our products enable customers to collect data automatically to accelerate products to market, improve safety and raise yields.   Dyneval was founded by Dr Tiffany Wood and Dr Vincent Martinez, complex fluid physicists from the University of Edinburgh with five decades of combined experience from biological fluids to formulations.  Â
Dyneval’s advanced automated technology enables precise measurements at much higher concentrations than other technologies allowing for a true understanding of product performance.
Core Technology
Dyneval’s core technology is based on applying methods from statistical physics to analyse the fluctuations in light intensity hitting each pixel of a video camera to measure key parameters such as diffusivity or swimming behaviour.  Due to the low magnification of Dyneval’s dynamic evaluation technique, structural changes are evident simultaneously at scales up to 1000 times larger. This combined approach offers a rich set of data that enables users to understand dynamics and interactions over a wide range of length scales in conditions that are inaccessible with other technologies. Our core-technology shows unparalleled performance at high concentrations, in complex environments and with opaque particles. Let us fulfil our purpose and support you to solve measurement challenges.Â
Our purpose
Dyneval provides hassle-free, high-precision measurements of motion and structure at the microscopic scale, empowering customers to optimise production efficiency through data-driven decision-making.
Our History
Founded by two physicists previously employed by the University of Edinburgh.Â
Dyneval raised an initial £1.3m of investment and £0.57m grant funding from Innovate UK to commercialise the technology for pen-side assessment of bull semen quality.
The Dynescan semen analyser was launched to the Veterinary Market.
The concept of the Sustained Motility Lifetime (SML) was invented, and independent vets collected the first evidence that demonstrated that cow conception rates are correlated with extended SML.Â
Interest in Dynescan semen analysis extended to sales in 11 countries around the world and an invitation to present a workshop at the National Animal Breeding Association conference in Wisconsin, USA.
Algorithm designed to accurately quantify the number of motile cells in all types of sex-sorted semen
Nano to micron range. No dilution. Reveals hidden aggregates and multiple populations to reduce R&D risk and improve scale-up confidence.
