smartTRACK Promises Innovation in Cold-Chain Shipping
Gate Scientific’s new Temperature Logger Reports Directly to Smartphone App or Database
Milpitas, CA: Ahead of the SLAS2022 conference in Boston, MA, Gate Scientific has announced the new smartTRACK Submersible Temperature Logger, which builds on their portfolio of smartSENSE monitors. Hermetically sealed but measuring only two and a quarter inches in length, smartTRACK continuously records temperature data in cold-chain shipments such as diagnostic samples, pharmaceutical products, and even human organs. Because the monitor can be sterilized with heat and steam prior to use, it may be placed in the innermost layer of packaging, directly adjacent to sensitive material such as donor organs, without the risk of contamination or infection that would accompany use of traditional temperature loggers.

Boston, MA: Gate Scientific, Inc of Milpitas, CA will demo their innovative line of smartSENSE® stir bars at the SLAS2022 laboratory automation and screening conference, taking place at Boston Convention & Exhibition Center from February 5th to the 9th. The wireless smartSENSE platform consists of wireless stir bars used for temperature, pH, and spin sensing, as well as the state-of-the-art digital programmable chemical lab station for heating, stirring, wireless sensing, remote control, and monitoring.
Gate Scientific Awarded Phase 2 SBIR Grant
Press Release, Milpitas, June 29, 2021
Milpitas, CA: On June 15th, the National Science Foundation awarded Milpitas startup, Gate Scientific, a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase 2 grant for their “smartSENSE” wireless sensor technology.
smartSENSE technology allows common chemical and biological sensors to be miniaturized and made wireless. These tiny sensors can be incorporated into existing equipment, such as magnetic stirbars commonly used to mix chemical reactions. To date, smartSENSE sensors have been developed to measure temperature, spin rate, and pH (acidity/alkalinity.)
Wireless pHlive™ Stir Bar and smartSENSE® Technology Replace the Traditional Benchtop pH Meter
Press Release, Milpitas, March 3, 2020
