The Wetware Concepts Lab on Chip solution is based on two different technological concepts:

■ an innovative nano-structured biosensor;

■ an innovative use of custom engineered cells as life-trasduction system.

The innovative Wetware process is based on a standard and reliable optical disk manufacturing process. In particular, Wetware Concepts uses innovative process to obtain a nanostrucutured sensors. The process is a low-cost and It enables mass production of microcomponents and nanostructure. Nanostructures are imprinted on the biocompatible polymeric material with high S/N ratio, permitting to analyze very low electrical signal. Once the nanosensor surface is fuctionalized, the Nanosensor can be used as detector, for example, as glucose sensor. If it is coupled with the innovative use of genetically engineered cells, the cellectron technology leads to a trasductor between the life environment to the electrical readable signals. The main products range between food&quality, antidoping, and high throughput drug screening
