Hand-held Water Analysis for Crops

The Nordetect system is the most compact and advanced water analysis solution on the market, combining innovative hardware with our patent-pending AgroChip. In just minutes, our solution delivers a comprehensive overview of your water’s macronutrient profile—empowering you to make informed input decisions, enhance nutrient efficiency and optimize crop yields.

Sensitive, Powerful, + Easy to Use

Agrochip for Macronutrient analysis

Nordetect has developed a patented, lab-on-a-chip that allows for the simultaneous measurement of plant macronutrients from a single sample.

Measures key nutrients: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), and Sulfur (S)
Our innovative chip features a capillary circuit that channels water to specific testing areas, where it interacts with chemical reagents
These reagents generate a signal that indicates the nutrient concentration of your water
Chips are designed for single use (recyclable and can be returned for processing and replenishment)

Accuracy Through VIS Spectrophotometry

All the Data You Need In the Palm of Your Hand

Aurora by Nordetect is a compact device that reads nutrient data from the AgroChip—our patented, recyclable testing chip designed for water analysis. Aurora provides a real-time visual display of key macronutrient levels: nitrogen, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, sulfur and potassium. This intuitive system enables fast, on-site testing, helping growers make informed decisions about fertilization and nutrient management.

Process

How it works

1. Prepare sample

Collect water in the provided dripper, add distilled water or reagent to dilute, then shake thoroughly to mix.

2. Insert Chip into analyzer

Simply insert the AgroChip into the designated slot on the Aurora device.

3. Add sample to chip

Using the dropper, place a few drops of the prepared water sample onto the AgroChip surface.

4. Results in 3 minutes

Aurora displays macronutrient levels in both ppm and mmol/L, delivering clear, actionable data to guide your input decisions and help maximize crop yield.
