On October 22, we had the pleasure of welcoming Nicolas Manier and Mehdi Dionigi from INERIS for a productive visit! Together, we conducted nematode chip tests within a microfluidic circuit – an important first step in developing an advanced ecotoxicology tool as part of the EDAPHOS project.
The EDAPHOS project, funded by Horizon Europe, is focused on implementing innovative technologies to monitor polluted soils and accelerate their restoration using nature-based solutions. The goal is to ensure that these processes can be seamlessly integrated into a commercial offer.
We’re very excited about this initial milestone, which highlights the successful collaboration between the C. elegans nematodes from INERIS and our unique, incubator-friendly, autonomous, and compact Caterpillar pump, “entre 0 et 1001 pattes”. This is just the beginning of something truly exciting!
