The Company WetWare Concepts S.r.l. is a University of Padua Spinoff. The first aim is to develop and promote its first product: MyoChip.
The WetWare Concepts is an Italian Research&Deleopment company that includes a technology platform focused on biotechnology and nanotechnology applied on electronic systems (the so called Converging Technologies). The founders group joined together different skills and experience from different fields: Biology, Biophysics, Physics, Engineering, Biotechnology. The Company has a wide and strong growing reference market.
MyoChip is a micro computer connected to muscular cells (myo-cells), modified with biotechnology, able to share information mediated by the microchip to the operator. In other words it is a new concept of nanotechnological biosensor, to challenge the doping hazard.
But not only, and here the range get larger: MyoChip is a device that fits the need to test the quality of food and to screen new drugs. It could be used finally in the basic research and for diagnostic in general.
Alive cells when are put into contact with biological samples which includes doping substances (with hipertrophic effects in the case of muscular cells) reply to that stimulus communicating the whole biological effect to the chip they are coupled with and not just the presence of specific substances. This is the enormous advantage: to detect potentially new or unknown substances but with the same biological effect. The scenario of the fight to doping and of the food-quality changes deeply.
