Our Objective

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.
