DiePresse erscheint am 11.9.2021 mit einem Artikel zu Purency. Co-Founder Benedikt Hufnagl und Aurelia Liechtenstein wurden interviewt und berichten zur Mikroplastikanalyse und Purency's Vorhaben.

In cooperation with leading researchers in the field of polymer research and spectroscopy, Purency has developed a first prototype to automate the data analysis of microplastics measurements using Raman spectroscopy.

Machine Learning is a game-changing technology that has a track record of disrupting and challenging the status quo. With respect to microplastics analysis it can enable a scalable data analysis pipeline: labs can analyse more samples at a lower cost.

Cutting-edge methods for the detection of microplastics in food are the focus of this international project that consists of strong research partners and more than 55 companies from F&B and packaging industries.

Purency Co-Founder Benedikt Hufnagl has been nominated for the CEN and CENELEC Standards + Innovation award in the category Young Researcher!
