Thank you for coming to this page where we have answered technical and commercial questions from the week. Please scroll down the questions to find your question and answer.
Question One – Commercialization of biosensors.
I wanted to share that I am very impressed with the device I purchased from you.
I would appreciate it if you could share some insights into the challenges faced in the development and implementation of biosensors.
Do you know of any success or failure stories in this field? If so, what were the key characteristics of each?
Question Two – can ZP carbn dioxide sensors be used for food ripening studies?
We are interested in measuring CO2 (and maybe pH) in situ for fruit respiration. In short, we have developed a coating on top of the fruit skin that can help extend the fruit shelf-life by slowing down respiration. Therefore, we are interested in measuring these gases inside the fruit flesh; the fruits we are working with are avocadoes. Would the environment (avocado flesh) be suitable for these CO2 sensors?
Questions Three – Lactate sensors in sweat for atheletes
I have always enjoyed and compete in MTB, BMX and a few more sports and I’m very curious about our body, and the lactate is a good indicator for the training and competition.
Question Four – Biosensors in Organ on a chip application
I am currently working on integrating various biosensors into an organ-on-a-chip platform and would like to gather more details about your sensors. Specifically, I am interested in understanding the detection ranges and sensitivities of your glucose, lactate, pH, calcium, and oxygen biosensors.
Additionally, I noticed that you offer two different pH sensors—the Hyper Value pH and the pH 303 sensor. Could you kindly clarify the differences between these two models?
Question Five – Is Differential Pulse Voltammetry better than Normal Pulse Voltammetry
Is NPV more sensitive or DPV. I think it should be DPV. Secondly, in DPV peak current should be higher or lower in comparison to CV?
Question Six – Putting pH sensors into low earth orbit.
We are currently searching for potential pH sensors to be used for monitoring liquids in aerospace applications, and we are very interested in your sensors’ capabilities.
However, we have the following questions:
1.Are any of your sensors tolerant to the various conditions expected at low-Earth orbit?
2. If not, do your sensors have any configuration options?
3. What is the power consumption of the sensors, or what is the range of power consumption across different configurations?
4. If power usage varies based on different configurations, could you provide guidance on how to estimate it for specific setups?
5. What is the general price range for the sensor and their available configurations?
