Measuring lactate in real-time, how does it work?

Lactate can be found in sweat. The IDRO device captures your sweat and consists of 3 different sensors. When the sweat comes into contact with the sensors, we can measure the pH, temperature and lactate of your sweat in real-time. No more painful needles and interrupting your exercise to now the lactate values. With IDRO this can now be done non-invasively in sweat, directly on your skin.



In the video above you can see how the IDRO sensor works. The sweat drops enter a channel where they touch our sensors that produce a small electrical signal. The signal is processed by the IDRO reader and you can read-out your lactate (+ pH and temperature) values in real-time on the IDRO app.


The IDRO device


The IDRO beta-sensor consists of an electronic reader and cartridges that host the sensors. The cartridges are disposables and have to be changed after every measurement. A single measurement can take up to several hours.

Real-time lactate is now available!

Measuring lactate has never been easy, until now, since with the IDRO device you can measure lactate in sweat. This allows real-time, non-invasive and continuous measurements of lactate.
