Kāhu SiliconBio

Microorganisms have evolved some of the most sensitive molecular sensing systems on the planet. They are ideally suited to detect and measure target chemicals – such as health biomarkers, metabolites, synthetic pollutants, flavour compounds, etc. – in liquid solutions.  Kāhu SiliconBio leverages this innate biological capability, engineers it for specific responses to critical chemical targets, and couples it to a bespoke integrated circuit for electronic readout. The result is innovative semiconductor design that uses living molecular machinery as an integral component of a silicon chip – fundamentally changing how we understand and relate to liquids and delivering rapid, continuous measurement of critical chemical targets at point of need.
