Technology

Traditional sweat analysis required a large amount of sweat and could only be collected through complex methods.

With the analysis technology developed by Pittan, it is now possible to easily analyze trace amounts of sweat that evaporate from the skin at a low cost.

This sweat biomarker technology enables anyone to easily measure their health and nutritional status.

Technology to analyze trace amounts of sweat at a low cost

Our on-site analysis device utilizes a patented ultra-fast and highly efficient automatic component extraction mechanism (SCT: Sono Chemical Technology) and an automatic reagent reaction mechanism (MPT: Micro Portion Technology).

This enables high-sensitivity analysis of amino acids in trace amounts of liquid extracted from sweat collection patches, without the need for complex procedures on-site.

An on-site analysis device that is available anytime, anywhere, and for anyone

Why sweat?

In recent years, tests utilizing sweat have gained attention as non-invasive methods for monitoring health status and performance.

Sweat secreted by eccrine sweat glands originates from extracellular fluid, and it has been reported that the concentration of amino acids in sweat is closely related to their concentration in the blood.

Amino acids play a crucial role in protein synthesis and metabolism within the body, and measuring them through sweat is increasingly viewed as a promising method for assessing nutritional status and muscle metabolic activity.

Significant technological advancements have been made in recent years regarding the measurement of biomolecules contained in sweat, and our microfluidic device enables the democratization of monitoring nutritional status and managing performance.

A future where large-scale meta-analyses are possible in real time

By integrating the CPI (Sweat Analysis Platform) with Multi-Modal AI (MMM: Multi-Modal Modeling), we can perform large-scale meta-analyses and epidemiological studies based on sweat components.

In the coming years, we aim to create a world where people can perform sweat analysis in real-time, receiving instant assessments of their health and nutritional status.

This technology will drive personalized and preventive medicine by utilizing vast amounts of sweat data to help build a global health database. Through MMM analysis, we can predict individual health conditions and disease risks, enabling optimal health management.

We aspire to create a future where global health monitoring allows everyone to access accurate health information in real-time.
