Gaia Isotopic
We hear cells breathe
What We Develop:
A scalable platform for the direct, automated, and reproducible real-time tracking of metabolism-driven carbon fluxes in cultured cells.
Current Status:
Prototype in laboratory operation; initial cell culture measurements using ¹²CO₂/¹³CO₂ differentiation.
Who We're Looking For:
Research partners and early users from the fields of metabolism, cancer, aging, and obesity research
Gaia Isotopic is a deep-tech company in the life sciences sector and a pioneer in metabolic research.
The currently available methods limit studying metabolism in real-time at the cellular level and tracking nutrients.
Although cellular metabolism is recognised as a key driver of cancer, immune responses, neurodegeneration and metabolic diseases, most laboratories rely on measurements that limit our understanding of cellular mechanisms, slow down decision-making and reduce the efficiency of experiments.
The solution offered by Gaia Isotopic is the Tiresias platform.
It opens a new analytical dimension for metabolic research: For the first time, it is possible to directly track nutrients in metabolism at the cellular level and determine cellular respiration in real-time and at the site of origin.

The Cell as the Body's Engine
Imagine you're standing in front of your broken car engine and have no idea how it works. You know what kind of fuel it uses, that energy is produced, and what exhaust fumes come out. But you don't know exactly what's happening inside the motor. That's why you can't figure out why your car won't run anymore.
Researchers in biomedicine face a similar challenge: They can observe which nutrients a cell absorbs, that oxygen is being consumed, and which substances are produced in the process. What they cannot see directly, however, is the exact path these substances take through the cell. Cell metabolism, the body’s engine, is still a black box. And unlike a car engine, you can’t simply pop the hood of a cell to figure out what’s wrong.
This is exactly where Gaia Isotopic comes in: Our technology helps visualize metabolic pathways within cells, enabling researchers to understand cellular processes from the outside as if they could look inside the cells themselves. Understanding how and in what ways healthy cells change is essential for uncovering how cancer and other metabolic diseases develop.

Genau hier setzt Gaia Isotopic an: Unsere Technologie hilft dabei, Stoffwechselwege in Zellen sichtbar zu machen, um Forschenden von außen die Möglichkeit zu geben, die Abläufe in den Zellen so zu verstehen, als könnten sie hinein schauen. Denn Informationen darüber, in welcher Art und Weise sich gesunde Zellen verändern sind essenziell, um zu verstehen, wie Krebs und andere Stoffwechselkrankheiten entstehen
