DNAPhone S.r.l. is a technology firm that provides quality control monitoring solutions for the food and beverage industry. The company originated in Parma, Italy, in July 2014, from the work of founders Alessandro Candiani, Alessandro Tonelli, and Michele Sozzi. Their journey began as a university research project focused on creating portable optical devices for diagnostics, leveraging their collective expertise in information engineering, biotechnology, and food science to address commercial needs in the food sector.
The company's core business revolves around its proprietary "Smart Analysis" platform, a portable enzymatic analyzer designed for small and medium-sized enterprises in the food and beverage industry. This system enables clients to perform rapid biochemical analyses for quality control directly on their premises, eliminating the need for specialized technicians or dedicated laboratories. The business model includes the sale of the hardware device, complemented by user-friendly mobile and web applications for data management and decision support, as well as the sale of pre-packaged, ready-to-use reagent kits. The platform was initially launched for the wine industry and has since expanded to serve the beer, olive oil, tomato, and wastewater treatment sectors.
The Smart Analysis system integrates a patented optical device with a tablet or smartphone, an intuitive mobile app, and cloud-based data services. This combination allows for on-site monitoring of key chemical parameters throughout the production process, such as during grape maturation or fermentation. Key features include pre-infused, disposable reagent kits that simplify the analysis procedure, and back-end systems for real-time diagnostics of the instrumentation. The company also developed ColorLab, a universal software for advanced color analysis using the CIELab method. In June 2020, DNAPhone signed a global distribution agreement with Biosystems S.A. to expand its market reach.
