Objective
Lengthy, effort-consuming lab-based procedures for food contaminants detection led to delays in supply chains, excessive food waste, economical losses, and illness of the consumers. NG Sensors applied its proprietary mass spectrometer (MS)-based technology to develop a Handheld Molecular Contaminants Screener (HMCS), a portable and user-friendly device to assess contaminations on-site in realtime. This is the first time that an MS is miniaturized without compromized sensitivity. HMCS offers cost-effective and time-saving contaminant assessment compared to current lab-based testing significantly reducing food waste and CO2 emission. We will generate revenues from HMCS sales and service contracts to food/feed processing companies in the Agri-food Testing market. The SAFE-FOOD project focuses on commercial, regulatory and pilot studies to ensure HMCS market readiness and commercialization to its market launch in 2023 that forecasts an annual revenue of 2.75M rising to 74M in 2027.
