About FaradayBio

Faraday Bio is bridging electrophoretic separation and characterization for proteins. Traditional electrophoresis techniques are foundational to biopharma and life science research—but once a separation is complete, the information locked within individual bands is inaccessible These bands represent distinct molecular species that can differ in structure, behavior, and risk profile, yet existing methods do not provide direct access for structural and functional analysis.


Our technology changes that. By faithfully reproducing standard electrophoretic separations with integrated sample capture, Faraday Bio enables the recovery of individual bands for direct analysis. Researchers preserve the original separation while gaining access to the material within each band—without re-engineering their workflow.


The result is a seamless bridge between separation and characterization, empowering applications across biopharmaceutical development, analytical characterization, and advanced research. With Faraday Bio, electrophoresis becomes not just a visualization tool, but a gateway to deeper insight.

Technology

At the core of Faraday Bio's technology is electrophoresis. Our proprietary microfluidic system is capable of running any electrophoretic method at high resolution and reproducibly isolating all variants for subsequent analysis. No more struggling to correlate results from orthogonal techniques – What you see is what you get!

Meet the Team

 With 59 years of combined experience in biological and analytical technologies, Erik and Scott have spent the last 15 years working together to build analytical platforms that have become trusted standards in biopharmaceutical research, development, and manufacturing. Across multiple companies, they have focused on a consistent goal: developing fit-for-purpose analytical systems that deliver the specific information biopharma needs—reliably, reproducibly, and at scale.


Their early work at ProteinSimple helped establish gold-standard electrophoretic separations for protein analysis and biologic drug characterization, including the Maurice capillary electrophoresis technology platform and the SimpleWestern instrument family for electrophoretic separation followed by immunoassay-based detection that are now widely used across regulated biopharmaceutical environments. Data generated by these platforms have supported regulatory submissions and critical decision-making across numerous biologic drug programs, underscoring their role in real-world development and quality control.


Building on this foundation, Erik and Scott next pioneered the first-ever direct integration of electrophoretic separation with structural characterization of intact protein variants at Intabio. They developed a microfluidic platform that enabled real-time, simultaneous multi-attribute monitoring, revealing critical molecular information that previously required multiple orthogonal assays and weeks of analysis. This platform, launched commercially as the Intabio ZT by SCIEX in 2023, has been adopted by many of the world’s top pharmaceutical companies, setting a new benchmark for analytical efficiency and insight in biologics development.


At Faraday Bio, Erik and Scott are addressing the next unmet need in biopharmaceutical science: integrating high-fidelity electrophoretic separation with direct access to individual molecular species, enabling both structural and functional characterization from the same resolved separation. By providing access to the material within each band, Faraday Bio addresses one of the most persistent limitations in separation science—transforming electrophoresis from a visualization tool into an analysis-ready platform. The result is deeper insight, reduced risk and accelerated timelines, and more confident decision-making across research and drug development.

Erik Gentalen

Erik Gentalen is CEO and co-founder of Faraday Bio and the co-inventor of its core technologies, with more than 20 years of experience building analytical systems for biologic drug and protein analysis. Over his career, Erik has developed and applied a problem-first, use-case-driven approach that emphasizes deep understanding of scientific and customer needs before designing technical solutions that fit real-world workflows and regulatory requirements, resulting in strong product-market fit. 


He was the founder and inventor of Intabio’s core microfluidic platform, which integrates electrophoretic separation with direct structural characterization to enable real-time, simultaneous multi-attribute monitoring. The technology progressed from initial funding to acquisition in 3.5 years and is now commercialized globally as the Intabio ZT system by SCIEX. Previously, Erik led development of the Simple Western platform at ProteinSimple from invention through launch and earlier contributed to foundational microfluidic and genomics technologies at Caliper and Affymetrix. He is an inventor on more than 50 issued patents and holds a BS in Biology from MIT.

Scott Mack

Scott Mack is CSO and co-founder of Faraday Bio and a co-inventor of its core technologies, with a career focused on developing protein separation products and assays for biopharmaceutical research and drug development. Earlier in his career, Scott played a key role in advancing electrophoresis-based platforms that became widely adopted in biologics analysis, including the development of the Maurice system at ProteinSimple, long regarded as a gold standard for protein charge characterization. 


He was a principal scientist at Intabio, where he led cross-functional teams in the conception and development of a transformative multi-attribute monitoring platform that reduced the time required to identify and characterize biotherapeutic proteoforms from weeks to minutes; following Intabio’s acquisition by SCIEX, he continued to advance novel bioanalytical workflows in collaboration with more than 30 pharmaceutical partners.  Previously, Scott held senior scientific roles at ProteinSimple and Beckman Coulter, contributing to the development of capillary electrophoresis systems and mass spectrometry–integrated workflows used across research and regulated environments. He is an inventor on 23 issued patents and holds an MS in Information Systems and a BS in Biochemistry from California State University, Fullerton.
