The BritChips Podcast: Kahu SiliconBio - Pivoting to a Patch
1:45
5:47

Anthony MillerHOST
But before we get into what seems to be a new direction for Kahu SiliconBio, can you first remind our audience about the novel technology you've developed in your bioelectric sensors? Certainly.
J
1:59James FlewellenGUEST
So we at Kahu have developed a bioelectronic interface, or more specifically, a microbial electronic interface.
J
2:08James FlewellenGUEST
So this is whereby we use living molecular machinery incorporated as a key functional component of an integrated circuit chip.
J
2:21James FlewellenGUEST
Now, the question is, well, why would we do this? And the answer is found in the fact that microbes, or specifically the bacteria that we use in our sensor devices, they are extremely sensitive to to trace amounts of chemical or molecular compounds in water and other aqueous solutions.
J
2:45James FlewellenGUEST
They've literally had billions of years of evolution getting extremely good at this.

Anthony MillerHOST
Why did you switch from water monitoring to hormone monitoring? And why a German backer?
