Bonraybio Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Bonraybio), founded in January 2016, is an innovative biotechnology enterprise specializing in comprehensive solutions for male infertility and provides a full range of products in the field of male reproductive testing which includes routine sperm testing, sperm DNA fragment rate testing, and optimum sperm selectors. It also sells its products globally under its “LensHoke®” house brand.
Main Products and Core Technologies
By combining the strength of Taiwan’s electronic component industry chain, Bonraybio independently developed a fully automatic miniaturized high-pixel optical microscope lenses, tightly integrated software and hardware computing platforms, and AI testing algorithms, and created the world’s first portable “fully automatic AI sperm quality analysis and testing instrument” that can produce test reports in an intelligent, automated, and standardized manner. Its advanced model can be paired with the sperm DNA fragment testing kit which incorporates the unique “solid-state dye transfer printing technology” to quickly analyze the status of sperm DNA fragments and further interpret male fertility indicators. Its sperm selection device with the exclusive “sperm motility selection technology” has the characteristics of time-saving and easy operation to effectively increase the recovery rate of high-quality sperm and improve the success rate of artificial impregnation via assisted reproductive technology (ART).
Bonraybio’s Innovative Products Are Recognized with National Awards
Bonraybio’s innovative products have been recognized by various domestic awards. In May 2023, the company’s products stood out among 459 qualified entries and won the silver medal of the ‘National Invention and Creation Award”. In September of the same year, the company won the gold medal of the “Taipei Biotech Awards – Go-Global Medal Award” and was awarded the “20th National Innovation Award - Enterprise Innovation Award” in December. In July 2024, the company won the “Taiwan BIO Awards - Gold Award”. The company’s repeated outstanding achievements in various authoritative competitions in the industry demonstrate its highly recognized research and development capabilities.
Competitive Advantages and Patent Achievements
Bonraybio has successfully commercialized its AI fully automated optical microscopy analysis technology by fully integrating various key core technologies and has developed and manufactured a series of “male infertility total solution” products. Currently, the company has obtained 90 patents with 21 patents pending approval, and has obtained product licenses in Taiwan, China, the United States, and the European Union under its house brand LensHooke®, with products marketed to 53 countries worldwide. By forming technological barriers through patents and product licenses, the company is able to effectively increase the entry time of competitors and maintain a leading position in technology. Compared with its peers who can only provide single testing or screening products for male reproduction, Bonraybio has had its entire product line fully launched, and continues introducing even more functional products every year to provide one-stop services from sperm testing to optimal selection and better meet customer needs.
Future Outlook and Vision
The lack-of-children trend and declining birth rate have become important demographic issues in various countries. Bonraybio upholds the principle of “Your Health, Our Focus! Develop Medical Innovation and Focus on Health” to actively promote medical testing intelligence and standardization, and continue committing itself to improving male infertility testing technology. The company also gradually expands to other biotechnology and medical testing fields, with short-term research and development goal of developing innovative and high-quality optimum sperm selection products, and medium- to long-term research and development goal of developing embryo freezing and thawing technology and reproductive medicine-related obstetrics, gynecology, urology, and clinical medical testing technologies. Bonraybio hopes to help more couples who want to have children feel the meaning of reproduction, enjoy and welcome the birth of new lives, and fill the world with more joy and laughter.
