About nanotion
Using a unique to be patent-protected laser-based technology platform, nanotion Inc. is a commercial manufacturer of analytical devices for the full characterization of nanoparticles in real time of nano-enabled liquid consumer and industrial products. nanotion Inc. provides technical solutions for water, food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries to be used for production monitoring processes and end-product quality control purposes. nanotion Inc. is a spin-off company of ETH Zurich, founded in June 2010 and supported by W.A. DeVigier foundation, CTIstartup and CTI projects.
The company
Nanotion Inc. was founded in June 2010 by Dr. Christopher Latkoczy and Bartjan den Hartogh. Based on a technical development in collaboration with the ETH Zurich and the eawag nanotion commercializes a technology as a service and as an analytical device to detect and characterize nanoparticles in liquid media with the help of Tom Forrer, who is working for the nanotion since November 2010 and who is responsible for algorithm programming and software development and adaptation. Opportunities and risks related to nanoparticles should be controlled as soon as possible. The company’s aim is to provide a working technology, both to optimize industrial processes and to reduce associated risks within the daily use of thousands products with nanomaterials.
