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.
1:58
Yeah.
1:59
So we at Kahu have developed a bioelectronic interface, or more specifically, a microbial electronic interface.
2:08
So this is whereby we use living molecular machinery incorporated as a key functional component of an integrated circuit chip.
2:21
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.
2:45
They've literally had billions of years of evolution getting extremely good at this.
2:51
This is how they survived, how they have survived for such a long time.

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