To drink or not to drink: home kit for the detection of pollutants in water
Our Objetive
| We are building a water biosensor,
but with a modular and scalable approach. Thereby, you could easily afford multiple measurements, with the very same device, just changing the promotor. The project will focus on the measurement of a primary pollutant: arsenic. However, its design provides an easy way to incorporate various contaminants already identified, such as nitrate / nitrite, lead and hydrocarbons. We aim to build a home kit, so people could use it without any previus knowledge or science background. | We are building a water biosensor,
