Non-invasive. 30 seconds. No dressing removal.

Detect infection before it’s visible

Wound infection is often detected too late — when visual signs appear. By then, the bacterial load is high, complications are harder to manage, and unnecessary dressing changes or antibiotics may already have been administered.

Olfaktion catches infection at its earliest stage by reading the volatile compounds that bacteria release long before any visible inflammation.

Olfaktion NeOse wound sensor

How it works

  1. Sample the wound

    Hold the sensor over or under the dressing. No removal needed.

  2. Instant analysis

    Sensors detect volatile compounds (VOCs) in 30 seconds.

  3. Objective score

    Software compares to a reference model. Clear result, no operator variability.

  4. Recorded automatically

    Every result stored and shareable — full traceability across clinicians.
