Gisens Biotech
Nanotechnology applied to medical science
We have found a way of harnessing the power of nanotechnology, to take portable diagnostics to the next century.
About Us
High quality & cutting-edge development team
We are an interdisciplinary, proactive and creative team with a state-of-the-art “know-how” in bioelectronics.
Our mission is to shape the future by revolutionizing the field of personalized medicine, and portable diagnostics, powered by nanotechnology.
Portable
A novel type of biosensor technology allows us to deliver lab-grade quality testing with a smaller hardware footprint. The entire testing device is the size of a smartphone and works without the need for an external power supply.
Non-invasive & simple
The high sensitivity of the biosensors unlocks the possibility of using ultra-small sample volumes. For example a saliva sample, that can be collected in less than 3 minutes in tube the size of a AAA battery.
High accuracy
This technology delivers unparalleled accuracy even for untrained users. Our sensors are designed to provide results that can be trusted by healthcare providers, while delivering a simple and easy user experience.
Connected Diagnostics
The true power of testing anywhere, and everywhere, is to integrate the results into digital platforms and EHRs in order to deliver real-time insights, recommendations and guidance.
First product
The technology
Our Nano-Lab, a comprehensive and portable testing device, will allow you to measure and control over timea diverse set of biomarkers.
You can test in real time the concentration of a diverse set of biomarkers, with a single drop of sample (blood, urine or saliva).
The measuring device connects via bluetooth with an app on any smartphone, tablet or computer, where all data will be stored, for easy access and sharing. Patients will be able to forward their test results to their doctors. Health care professional will have a dedicated app with comprehensive reports so they can do the follow up on each of their patients in real time.
Additional device information
Biosensors
The sensing module is the heart of our device: The state-of-the-art technology in these biosensors makes them some of the most advanced in the world. They have incredibly high sensitivity, at a lower cost than current sensors, and they require no chemical reagents or calibration.
Module
The measuring module is the brain of our device: This module has the size of a smartphone, and will be where the sensor is inserted for signal reading.The multi-processor technology allows for extraordinarily low response time, transferring the results via bluetooth in less than 2 minutes.
App
The app is designed to show in a friendly digital format, the results captured by the biosensor and the electronic reader. The app will also gather and store past data, as well as allow the creation of detailed reports, and graphics to show trends, and results variability.
