NanoAffix Science Has developed technology for real-time detection of contaminants in drinking water. Graphene-based sensors with nanometer-thick layers enable rapid and inexpensive quantitative onsite testing for lead in tap water.NanoAffix Science LLC (NAFX) is a spin-off small business formed around exclusively licensed patented technologies from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Research Foundation. The mission of NAFX is “Inventing the future of sensing – cleaner, smarter, digital water.” The company has recently received equity investments from three water manufacturing companies (A. O. Smith, Badger Meter, and Baker Manufacturing) to prototype real-time water sensor chips using a graphene transistor technology.
