About NANOTEL

NANOTEL is a company that produces electrospun nanofibers from synthetic and natural polymers. It was established as a start-up at Istanbul Technical University Techno Park in 2014 by Prof. Dr. Filiz Altay. NANOTEL had a grant in 2015 from TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye) for a 1512-Entrepreneurship Support Project (no: 2140151) called “Commercial Production of Nanofibers used in Foods and Pharmaceuticals.” In this project, NANOTEL manufactured electrospinning equipment producing nanofibers at various scales. NANOTEL had a TUBITAK project (no: 1150062) called “Reducing fat content in oil-in-water emulsions by addition of electrospun nanofibers” during 2015-2017. In this project, the stability of fat-reduced food emulsions increased by addition of nanofibers. NANOTEL had another TUBITAK project (no:1150783) called “Implants from or covered with drug-loaded nanofibers” in 2017. In this project, the targeted delivery of drug-loaded nanofibers has been studied. NANOTEL was sponsor for the “International Symposium on Food Rheology and Texture” organized at ITU in 2018. NANOTEL has conducted special projects for industry on the utilization of nanofibers as a functional packaging layer and decreasing the amount of raw materials by addition of nanofibers. NANOTEL is the first Turkish company that produces nanofiber cell and tissue cultures commercially. NANOTEL offers consultancy to companies on nanotechnology applications and manufactures nanofiber cell/tissue cultures, nafiber encapsulated bioactive materials, nanofiber additives for various applications and carbon nanofibers. Customized nanofibers can be manufactured as needed. For more information send your inquiry to lokumcu@itu.edu.tr
