BRAVE IS THE WAY FORWARD.
OptoFluidic Force Induction
Eureka! With OF2i® we bravely march into a new era of particle measurement. See nanoparticles like never before, analyze them continuously in real-time and receive representative measurement results.
BRAVE B-Continuous
BRAVE B-Continuous is directly integrated into the manufacturing process as an online PAT sensor. It monitors your production in real-time, faster and more accurately than ever before.
BRAVE B-Curious
BRAVE B-Curious revolutionizes the measurement of particle size, PSD and particle concentration and provides additional Raman analysis on a single-particle basis.
BRAVE Analytics develops and delivers lab and PAT solutions for particle characterization in water and environmental analysis, for biotech applications and the pharmaceutical industry.

Particle analytics
with OF2i + Raman
BRAVE Analytics introduces its particle analysis device which determines particle size and particle concentration and provides Raman analysis - continuously, in-flow and on a single-particle basis.
The new and patented OptoFluidic Force Induction is the result of years of research and development. Our groundbreaking technology for (nano-)particle measurement heralds a new era of nanoparticle characterization. With OF2i® you can:
Particles size, particle size distributions and particle concentrations can be analyzed faster and more accurately than ever before. OF2i® goes beyond the limitations of conventional methods for particle characterization such as DLS or NTA. It also detects ultra-low particle concentrations and measures from low sample volumes (from 20 µL). With the OF2i® devices there is the option of adding Raman analysis for detecting and identifying nanoparticles and microplastics. The technology also sets the foundation for a move to real-time release testing in production processes.
Send us your sample(s) – and we’ll do the rest
Find out whether OF2i® measurements are the answer to your particle challenges!
Get in touch, we’ll organize measurements on your sample(s) and send you a detailed measurement report. This is the first (non-binding) step to a feasibility study. Open the door to deeper insights today!
The OF2i® principle will soon be available as a PAT solution for continuous online monitoring of (nano)particles during production. The BRAVE B-Continuous PAT sensor, which launches in 2024, runs 24/7 and lays the foundation for RTRT (Real-Time Release Testing).
BRAVE B-Continuous opens the door to:

OF2i® integrates directly into the manufacturing process as an online PAT sensor. It continuously delivers measurement data in real-time so you can check, adjust and optimize your production processes.
Our nanoparticle analyzer for the lab BRAVE B-Curious is available to order now. The online PAT sensor BRAVE B-Continuous is currently being optimized and tested together with selected partners and will be available in 2024.
OF2i® has single-particle sensitivity. It can even detect ultra-low particle concentrations, single large particles or outliers, e.g. a few nanoplastic particles in one milliliter of water.
Quickly available measurement data is one of OF2i®’s many strengths. As soon as the measurement starts you can see a live stream of the particles in the H.A.N.S. software and results are ready immediately.
Contact us at sales@braveanalytics.eu. We will answer all your questions, offer a live demo either at your site or online and discuss further steps (including: a feasability study, comparison measurements, measuring campaign).
Yes, the lab device measures over minutes and even hours. As a PAT device BRAVE B-Continuous is made for 24-hour operation.
Absolutely. While established methods typcially deliver average values as results, OF2i® delivers number-based values with single-particle sensitivity. These results are statistically valid and representative of all the present particle populations.
