other organisms, biomarkers from sweat, tears and other sources etc which could be utilized
in numerous industries such as healthcare, electrochemical, agriculture, aquaculture,
forensics, food and beverage (F&B), water management and others. The first in-its-class of
electronic and electrochemical sensors, which are now extensively patented and protected,
forms the technology behind his spin-off company, allows a universal detection method based
on characteristic electronic (eProfiles) and electrochemical (eSignatures) profiles. In-line with
