SENS4WHAT: Microfluidic Electrochemical Sensor Instrument

The SENS4WHAT is focused on the production of an affordable compact and low-power analytical instrument that could be applied to the decentralized measurement of water contaminants. This will include miniaturized electrochemical sensors that will selectively respond to the target analytes to be measured, together with microfluidic modular components that could be easily reconfigured and adapted to different analytical real settings. This project looks at the synergy between the broad expertise of the host institution in technology development for analytical processes and the previous experience of the candidate in materials, instrument design and development and technology transfer, to tackle all the required tasks to successfully produce an instrument for environmental water monitoring.

The SENS4WHAT project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 801342 (Tecniospring INDUSTRY) and the Government of Catalonia's Agency for Business Competitiveness (ACCIÓ).
