This video shows nitrate detection electrodes together with the Sensit BT, which is based on the EmStat Pico. The EmStat Pico was developed in cooperation with Analog Devices.
Pesticides
Only 3% of all available water on earth is fresh water. Groundwater accounts for over 97% of all freshwaters and is therefor our main source for drinking water. Our groundwater is threatened by contamination due to the use of pesticides, heavy industry waste water streams and other human induced events.
PalmSens BV was involved in a project for the development of an integrated autonomous electrochemical system for in-situ pesticide residue monitoring in groundwater supplies, lakes and rivers. In this particular case the customer has developed a sensor that detects specific pesticides, the sensor has been validated with the research grade instruments of PalmSens.
The application is then simply transferred to the OEM instrument without the need to redo the entire validation process. The customer can use the PalmSens’ OEM product to commercialize this specific application under his own brand.
