THE FIRST PORTABLE MASS SPECTROMETER DEVICE FOR RAPID, ON-SITE FOOD CONTAMINANT TESTING
The SAFE-FOOD project aims to commercialize a handheld mass spectrometer for real-time food contamination detection, reducing waste and emissions while generating significant revenue by 2027.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Lengthy, effort-consuming lab-based procedures for food contaminants detection led to delays in supply chains, excessive food waste, economical losses, and illness of the consumers.
Technology Development
NG Sensors applied its proprietary mass spectrometer (MS)-based technology to develop a Handheld Molecular Contaminants Screener (HMCS), a portable and user-friendly device to assess contaminations on-site in real-time.
Innovation
This is the first time that an MS is miniaturized without compromised sensitivity. HMCS offers cost-effective and time-saving contaminant assessment compared to current lab-based testing, significantly reducing food waste and CO2 emissions.
Revenue Generation
We will generate revenues from HMCS sales and service contracts to food/feed processing companies in the Agri-food Testing market.
Project Focus
The SAFE-FOOD project focuses on:
- Commercial studies
- Regulatory studies
- Pilot studies
This ensures HMCS’ market readiness and commercialization for its market launch in 2023, which forecasts an annual revenue of €2.75M rising to €74M in 2027.
