Electrochemical sensors for point of use diagnostics from Canatu

Electrochemical sensors

Electrochemical sensors using Canatu CNT provide a rapid, precise, and low-cost method for quantitative analysis in medical, agricultural, and environmental sectors.  


Unique structural and catalytic properties

The inherently large specific surface area, high electrical conductivity, and tailorable surface chemistry makes Canatu CNT films an ideal material for electrochemical sensor development. Canatu’s unique dry deposition method enables mass production of highly repeatable CNT films with large electrochemically active surface area and high signal-to-noise ratio.

These high purity CNT films can be controllably functionalized to allow for a wide range of chemical modifications and immobilization chemistries while preserving the high sensitivity.

Electrochemical sensors using Canatu CNT’s offer:

  • high electrical conductivity and surface area
  • high sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio
  • highly repeatable electrode platform
  • proven scalability of production process
