About Cytovale

Headquartered in San Francisco, CA, Cytovale is a dynamic, late-stage startup focused

on developing a faster, more insightful way to diagnose fast-moving and immune-

mediated diseases. Cytovale's IntelliSep test is pioneering a new way of quickly and

accurately analyzing white blood cells to stratify a patient's risk of sepsis. The test

simply and clearly determines sepsis probability using a biomechanical evaluation of

white blood cells collected from a standard blood draw, generating results in under 10

minutes. This gives physicians information when they need it most, allowing them to

confidently triage suspected sepsis patients quickly and spend more time with those in

greatest need. It also helps strained health systems prevent unnecessary treatment,

preserve valuable resources, and improve compliance with SEP-1 guidelines.
