DermaPurge GmbH

DermaPurge is a technology spin-off from the Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden. The development was triggered by a laboratory accident: a student assistant had gotten a cadmium selenide quantum dot nanoparticle solution on her skin despite the prescribed personal safety equipment (PPE).

Some had gotten under the gown onto the skin via the glove. Since no means were available at that time to effectively remove the nanoparticles from the skin, we developed nano-ex. With DermaPurge, we bring the solution to our colleagues in nanotechnology.
