The past 7th of June, The Japan Market Expansion Competition (JMEC) announced the winners of the JMEC 22 program at its annual JMEC Awards Ceremony at the Tokyo American Club.
We are very glad and proud to say that “Team 7″, 3rd Prize winners of JMEC 22, worked on our project !!! (more…)
Impetux has recently received the Innovative SME certification. This certification is awarded by the Spanish Economics and Competitiveness Ministry in recognition of the investment done in research.
A new free loan service is now available for anyone who wants to test our optical force measurement systems. If you have your own optical tweezers and you are working on some experiments where you need to measure the forces applied while manipulating, these are your instruments.
Impetux has been chosen for the 2015 edition of the program: Keys to Japan, an European Commission-funded initiative.
Another important step for our internationalization strategy !
After participating in the IV edition of the EMPENTA program, organized by ACCIO and ESADECREAPOLIS, we were interviewed at ESADECREAPOLIS OPEN INNOVATION COMMUNITY.
You can read the complete interview in Spanish here.

An Optics Express paper talking about the direct measurement of optical forces based on recording the change of light momentum: (the approach that overcomes many of the limitations of force measurements based on position measurements).
Arnau has given the talk:
And Ferran has been presenting the poster:
In addition, many attendants have had the opportunity to see our demo and solve all their doubts about our method. Thank you very much to all of them for their interest!

The authors present a comparison between two different methods for measuring forces inside living cells and provide measurements of the stall force of kinesin in vivo using the momentum-based approach.
Arnau Farré, co-founder of IMPETUX OPTICS, has been awarded with the Justiniano Casas second prize for research in Optical Imaging, 4th edition, for his thesis, entitled “Momentum measurements of single-beam traps and quantitative holographic experiments: two sides of the same coin”. The award ceremony was hold on the 29 of August in Santiago de Compostela during the meeting of the 23rd Congress of the International Commission for Optics (ICO).
The IMPETUX team is glad to announce the launch of the entry-level optical force measurement system: Deimus T-10i.
As a result of our continuous development activity we are proud to present our new T series system for Optical Tweezers
SENSOCELL optical tweezers for cell & tissue mechanobiology
