Problem
Nut allergies affect millions of people worldwide, posing a serious health risk that can turn everyday meals into life-threatening experiences. Whether dining out, traveling, or simply trying new foods, individuals with nut allergies face constant anxiety due to hidden ingredients and cross-contamination. Current testing methods are either lab-based, expensive, or too slow to use in real-world scenarios. There is a growing need for a reliable, portable solution that empowers users to test their food quickly and confidently—right before they take a bite.
Solution
The Nut Allergen Detection System (N.A.D.S.) is a compact, easy-to-use device that detects the presence of nut proteins in food in seconds. By combining cutting-edge biosensors and microfluidic technology, N.A.D.S. delivers lab-level accuracy in a format that fits in your pocket. Users simply swab their food, and the device analyzes the sample on the spot, sending real-time results to a connected mobile app. Designed with speed, sensitivity, and everyday convenience in mind, N.A.D.S. helps users stay safe without compromising their lifestyle.
How It Works
Using a simple swab mechanism, users collect a small sample from the surface of their food, which is then processed through a microfluidic chip embedded in the device. Within seconds, biosensors detect the presence of nut-based allergenic proteins and send the results to a mobile app via Bluetooth. The app clearly indicates whether the food is safe or potentially dangerous, allowing users to make informed decisions instantly. This seamless integration of hardware and software ensures that anyone, anywhere, can test their food with confidence and ease.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower individuals with nut allergies to live confidently and safely through fast, portable, and reliable allergen detection. We aim to remove the fear and uncertainty from everyday eating by providing real-time results using advanced biosensor and microfluidic technology. At N.A.D.S., we believe that no one should have to second-guess their food choices. Our goal is to make allergen safety accessible, accurate, and effortless for everyone.
