PhagoFlux

We are developing innovative sensing technology, transforming how we monitor cell health. Our novel approach quantifies autophagic flux, offering a promising avenue to transform healthcare and save lives. Autophagy, much like regular car maintenance, is a vital intracellular cleaning process that prevents the accumulation of toxic materials within cells. At its core, ‘autophagic flux’ signifies the speed at which these harmful substances are efficiently removed through autophagy. Inadequate autophagy has been closely linked to accelerated ageing and the early onset of age-related ailments such as diabetes, cancer, and notably, Alzheimer’s disease. Therefore, accurately measuring autophagy activity holds immense significance. Our mission is to deliver precise and accessible solutions that enhance both research and healthcare, ultimately contributing to a healthier, brighter future.
