Colorific

Revolutionary quick tests with innovative nanoswitch technology

Redefining sample-to-answer detection

Colorific emerged from Aalto University’s Neuroscience & Biomedical Engineering department in the Molecular Nanoengineering laboratory.

The team has developed an innovative nanoswitch-based sensing technology for the detection of target molecules, such as antibodies, small proteins, and toxins. The nanoswitch technology produces both a measurable signal and a visual color change of the solution. The features and easy programmability of the nanoswitches enable sensitive and reliable detection for several applications. 

Speed

Fast visual results without sample pre-processing creates an efficient on-site testing method.

Programmability

Simple core technology and interchangeable biorecognition elements allow for easy adaptation to multiple targets.

Dual Readout

Readout possible with a spectrometer of the naked eye allowing for tailoring to demands of each application.
