Controlnano is a technology-based company founded by PACKA VENTURES with high expertise in the field of health risk assessment related to the exposure of nanoparticles in industrial facilities and urban environments.
We design and manufacture simple, reliable, and comparatively economical devices to be operated by occupational health and safety (OHS) advisors and environmental health professionals for monitoring of the presence of pathogens (i.e. viruses) in critical infrastructures, and for providing information on the concentration levels of nanoparticles and respirable dust in air. These solutions combine measurement technologies with a data acquisition software designed to be operated by non-expert users.
COVIDSense
This system will be capable of detecting the presence of the COVID-19 in real time, both in ambient air and in biological fluids. It will allow for immediate diagnosis and accelerate decision making to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
Main features:
Robust, portable, and plug & play device designed to on-field CoV-19 detection, with high sensitivity, enhanced selectivity, good reproducibility, and practical applicability.
• Highly sensitive nanostructured immunosensor for real-time detection of SARS-CoV proteins.
• Easy fabrication process, reduced interferences, and high sensitivity.
• Compatible with microcontrolling and sampling elements from Nanowatcher, guaranteeing integration.
• Sampling heads based on gelatin filters available for further laboratory analysis for research purposes.
• Safety: designed to avoid direct contact with infected people or droplets containing viruses
• Disruptive: according to our current studies, no other devices for on-site detection are available.
Nanowatcher
Nanowatcher is a low-cost advanced device and software for accurate evaluation and report of nanoparticles exposure, in either industrial or urban environments.
Main features:
• Robust: it provides reliable data in harsh and dusty industry environments
• Easy to use: No technical knowledge or training is needed
