L2M – Imprinted polymeric microstructures for specific capturing of target analytes

For those who need precise and selective capturing, releasing, and sensing of substances within complex samples and harsh conditions, SensoFluidix offers microparticles and membranes with monodispersed shapes and sizes, serving as tailor-made synthetic recognition elements within disposables microfluidic cartridges and sensors. Unlike natural receptors, our cost-effective synthetic receptors can endure harsh environments, boast a prolonged shelf life, and are user-friendly, easily stored, and animal-free. Our technology can be engineered for a wide range of target analytes, including ions, and whole microbial cells. We aim to address a series of validated problems for well-identified customers in environmental monitoring, mining, battery recycling, and analytical chemistry industries.
The Mitacs BSI program will enable us to grasp the fundamentals of lean startup methodology and take significant strides toward commercializing our ideas. This includes finalizing our business model under the guidance and support of mentors, facilitators, and supervisors, providing us with invaluable expertise and direction.
