FROM AEROTOXIC TO PANDEMIC
Early detection
is the only answer.
The WHO confirmed it: early detection is key to combating the spread of coronavirus. Yet throughout the pandemic, governments had no real-time detection capability.
The same NanoSense team that delivered the world’s first real-time organophosphate detector for aircraft recognised that their NPL-verified technology detects compounds 100 times smaller than viruses. The adaptation for virus detection commenced immediately, in collaboration with the UK’s Rosalind Franklin Institute.
Real-time detection provides real-time protection. ViruSense doesn't wait for results — it delivers them.
The Gap: No Real-Time Testing
Lateral flow and PCR tests are neither real-time nor scalable. They require samples, processing time, and cannot screen public spaces. ViruSense is the first real-time optical virus sensor.
NPL-Verified Sensitivity
The NanoSense platform already detects molecules 100 times smaller than a virus particle — at the chemical building-block level. Virus adaptation is an extension of proven technology, not a new gamble.
Rosalind Franklin Institute Collaboration
The UK’s Rosalind Franklin Institute agreed to collaborate on the ViruSense Covid virus sensor programme — providing world-class scientific validation and development support.
Another Pandemic Is Coming
Bill Gates (18/2/22): advances in medical technology should help the world do a better job of fighting it, if investments are made NOW. ViruSense is that investment.
