The existing point of care device for food allergy of detection system can only detect gluten upper than 20 ppm, but lack ability to quantify smaller concentration. Thus, our team develops the novel point-of-care device, which can quantify target below 10ppm for multiple protein in the same time. Furthermore, rapid extraction with special techniques and electrochemical sensor, the device invented by us can readout data in less than 2 minutes. In addition, the charge of per test is only 3~4 dollars, which is noticeably more competitive, compared to ELISA.
Highly sensitive and high-throughput detection without restrictions from the site
Track nucleic acid DNA identification and other tests from upstream sources of food
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are 15 million people with food allergies in the US, and 2.5 million and 17 million in Canada and Europe, including 40% of children with food allergies have experienced a severe allergic reaction. Nevertheless, the percentage of food allergy sufferers increases year by year. Moreover, MarketsandMarkets forecasts that the marketplace of food allergen detecting and food safety detecting will reach 5.74 and 24.6 billion in 2022 and 2023 respectively, which estimates the company will begin to stabilize its profits by at least $6 million a year in 2022.

Currently, cases of allergic reactions caused by food are endless, and it is a vast challenge to make judgments and tests immediately before ingestion. Hence, our group has committed to developing the IoT system for on-site food allergen detection. The superiority of detection developed by us is easy for users to carry, and the detection effect is faster and more accurate, which fully meets the vision of our company - User-Friendly.
