A tri-national cooperation takes surface characterization of powders and fibers by Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) to new heights
Press Release November 2016
The three companies Adscientis (France), Inolytix (Switzerland) and Porotec (Germany) have been collaborating since October 2016 with a view to launching a new fully automated instrument on the market in 2017. Together, they combine all the expertise needed to develop a really industry-oriented, efficient and highly significant instrument for Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) - the next generation setting new standards got industry. Adscientis brings specific IGC experience to the venture, while Porotec is a reliable partner for sales, maintenance and development of instruments and Inolytix is a dynamic startup offering innovative analytical techniques to industries.
Eric Brendlé, CEO of Adscientis: “It is great to bring all this experience together in this cooperation. It has always been my dream to use my experience to develop a new instrument, and together we can do this . IGC4.0 will be a new standard on the market.” Adscientis, Porotec and Inolytix share the same passion for scientifically sound solutions, real insights into material properties and industryoriented service.
Surface characterization of powders, fibers and porous materials today is still very tricky. But with a technique known as inverse gas chromatography (IGC) it is possible to detect the real interface properties by pulsing many different gases through a sample. In this highly quantitative way, values such as dispersive surface energy, nano-roughness, polarity and acid/base constants can be derived and surface energy distributions can be analyzed.
Adscientis and its CEO Eric Brendlé have 16 years of experience serving the industry with IGC, and many hundreds of projects with industrial partners have been performed. Now it is time to accelerate the development, combining the experience of all three partners and coming up with an innovative generation of smart, fully automated IGC instruments and solutions.

New analytical methods for lifescience R&D departments in Switzerland
Press release Sept. 2014:
On 4/5 September 2014 Inolytix will present DQCM, Quartz Crystal Microbalance with dissipation monitoring, at the BioTech 2014 conference at the University of Applied Sciences in Zürich. This will be at the booth of 3T Analytik, a new partner of Inolytix.
QCM with dissipation monitoring is a new method in the portfolio of Inolytix especially suited for in-situ and kinetical measurements of chemical or biological films. Inolytix is the exclusive provider for DQCM of 3T Analytik in Switzerland and wants to support lifescience companies with this new technique.
Inolytix is expanding its portfolio with representations for analytical methods fast. In April they started their partnership with Adscientis, France, for IGC, inverse gas chromatography, with a common IGC Symposium in Frankfurt. This method is for the physical characterization of solid surfaces, like powders, fibers and polymers.
Inolytix is a startup founded in February 2014 in Aargau, Switzerland and offers innovative analytical methods for the characterization of physical chemical surfaces. Inolytix connects R&D departments with new specialized techniques to enable them to accelerate their product development and innovation.
The 3T analytik develops laboratory equipment for label-free research on molecular interactions and electrochemical effects on the basis of quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) including advanced dissipating functions. In additional 3T analytik offers macrofluidic solutions for liquid handling and instruments for fast and easy production of microfluidic Lab on a Chip systems with optional integration of quartz sensors.

Faster product innovation through new insights
Press Release March 2014:
In February 2014 a new startup was launched in Aargau, Switzerland, for the chemical industry. Its name is Inolytix - a combination of innovation and analytics.
The vision of the founder, Dr. Ralf Duempelmann, a former manager of R&D departments at one of the large specialised chemical companies is: to connect R&D departments with innovative analytical service providers. So they will gain more insights through the new methods to improve their products faster. "From my own experience I know how difficult it is and how much time is needed to find the right partner for a specific issue. With Inolytix we want to offer a portfolio of analytical services on one platform. The processes of finding the right analysis, to receive an individual offer and a qualified report of the results will be fast and easy. This will save time for R&D departments and accelerate their product development," explains CEO Ralf Duempelmann.
At the moment the analytical methods are focussing on surface analysis. In the future this will be extended to other types of analysis.
The startup is based in Kanton Aargau, Switzerland and is reaching out to customers and partners all over Europe through the website: www.inolytix.com.
