Congratulations to Lucendi, Inc. and PolyGone Systems for winning our fall 2024 Tech Challenge! This session, we were looking for solutions for #microplastic detection and removal. Our corporate sponsors, A. O. Smith Corporation, Badger Meter and Watts Water Technologies, chose Lucendi and PolyGone for the $10,000 prizes! Lucendi, Inc., based in Los Angeles, develops AI-powered innovations for high-performance detection and characterization of micro-objects in liquids. Its Aqusens platform has been shown to automatically identify a variety of targets from microplastics to harmful organisms like giardia, cyanobacteria and toxic algae. PolyGone Systems is a Princeton University spinout that has developed an affordable, portable and environmentally friendly filtration system that captures microplastics below 1mm scale and can be applied to a wide range of water bodies, including rivers, lakes and wastewater effluents. https://ow.ly/95vJ50UAAQw Karen J.

We are pleased to share the success of the Lucendi, Inc. Aqusens platform workshop in collaboration with Centre of Marine Sciences (CCMAR), where researchers and professionals came together to explore innovative applications of imaging technology in marine and environmental sciences. A sincere thank you to Carina Mónico from CCMAR’s imaging for her invaluable assistance in organising this event. Your support was key to its success. During the workshop, we demonstrated the versatility of the Aqusens system across various research areas, including: - Algae Biotechnology: Monitoring algae health, concentration, and contaminants. - Aquaculture: Real-time imaging of live feed and detection of harmful algal blooms. - Water Monitoring: Identifying and analyzing contaminants, including microplastics. - Marine Ecology: Studying phytoplankton dynamics and supporting ecosystem monitoring. We successfully imaged a variety of samples, including those from the Ria Formosa, where we identified copepods and phytoplankton species such as Ditylum. Additionally, we examined gametophytes and various algae species, including Prorocentrum, highlighting the precision and versatility of Aqusens technology across diverse applications. Participating Institutions We were honored to host attendees from leading institutions, including: Centre of Marine Sciences (CCMAR) : Francisca Félix Azeredo, Cicero Alves-Lima, Joana Cruz, Vania Baptista, Davide Liberti and Badr-Edine Sadoq CIMA Ualg: Ana Barbosa and Maria Lima GreenCoLab: Gabriel Bombo S2AQUAcoLAB: Jo?o Janeiro IPMA Instituto Português do Mar e da Atmosfera: Sergei Danchenko ABC CoLab: Beatriz Martins This workshop highlighted the immense potential of Aqusens technology in advancing marine research, algae biotechnology, and environmental monitoring. We are excited to continue collaborating with researchers and organizations to explore innovative solutions and drive progress in these fields. Feel free to reach out to learn more or discuss potential collaborations. Let’s connect and explore how Aqusens can elevate your projects and support innovative solutions in your work!

First official deployment of our new #Aqusens imaging platforms from #Lucendi! Samples are part of #Synchro's transect today in Monterey Bay. Time from receiving samples to my first images - less than 5 minutes!
