on blood flow

We develop a microfluidic-based platform to advance hematological diagnostics, assist therapy decision-making and improve patient safety.

Our technology enables a high-throughput, AI-powered assessment of the morphology and functionality of blood on a cellular level.

Technology

Over 25 trillion red blood cells travel through our bodies every minute. Their shape is a highly sensitive parameter for both intrinsic cell properties and external influences. Erysense utilizes red blood cell shape features as a biomarker.

The Erysense platform simulates microvascular blood flow in microchannels with a diameter 10X smaller than a human hair. Using an automated AI-based cell shape evaluation, Erysense constitutes a fast and robust point-of-care system for patient-centered assessment of blood functionality.

Advantages

Small sample volume

Erysense requires only one drop of blood, avoiding the need of specialized personnel for sampling and minimizing patient blood loss.

Analysis on a single-cell level

The shape of red blood cells is highly influenced by the intrinsic cell properties and external conditions. Erysense enables the examination of such effects on the morphology of individual cells at high-throughput.

Versatility

Erysense enables advanced hematological diagnosis, individualized therapy, and in-vitro drug testing.
