  • No Sample Preparation Required
  • Obtain Results Within 8–24 Hours

Advanced Platform Technology

AquaSpark™ is a breakthrough synthetic-molecule platform specifically engineered for chemiluminescent detection of viable microorganisms. The molecules are composed of a central “luminescent” moiety conjugated with bacterium-specific substrates. Upon enzymatic cleavage by target microbes, AquaSpark™ is activated, triggering a chemiluminescent reaction that can be quantitatively read using a next-generation luminometer.

AquaSpark™ produces a chemiluminescent signal up to 1,000 times brighter than conventional molecules, representing a uniquely precise and high-performance innovation. This underpins N-Light™’s ability to deliver ultra-sensitive detection across diverse microbiological testing applications. Leveraging AquaSpark™’s patented value, the N-Light™ platform can be custom-designed to detect specific microorganisms such as bacteria, parasites, fungi, or viruses.

Innovative Phage Technology

Bacteriophages are highly specific viral biocontrol agents that selectively infect and lyse bacteria. NEMIS has developed proprietary phage-enriched culture media, enabling selective amplification of target microorganisms while suppressing background flora. This targeted enrichment step significantly enhances the sensitivity and specificity of N-Light™ rapid detection.

The patented AquaSpark™ technology further enables broad environmental pathogen monitoring.
