Archer Materials Limited has completed its alpha prototype of a blood potassium sensor integrated with a biochip. This development is crucial for clinical workflows and at-home monitoring of potassium levels, particularly for patients with chronic kidney disease and heart failure.
This milestone represents the first major step in translating Archer’s Biochip technology from individual laboratory devices into a product suitable for clinical workflows and, ultimately, point of care and at-home potassium monitoring.

Archer Materials Limited has completed its alpha prototype of a blood potassium sensor integrated with a biochip. This development is crucial for clinical workflows and at-home monitoring of potassium levels, particularly for patients with chronic kidney disease and heart failure.
The biochip prototype is designed for accurate blood potassium monitoring, which is essential for patients with conditions like chronic kidney disease and heart failure.
The alpha prototype demonstrates potassium measurement accuracy within ±0.3 mM, meeting clinical standards.
The prototype requires only 10μL of blood, making it compatible with standard finger-prick tests.
Archer is developing a beta prototype, which will be used for negotiations with MedTech companies and to initiate clinical trials.
Dr. Simon Ruffell is the CEO of Archer Materials.
