Sorbisense
Galten, Denmark
Sorbisense is the Danish scientific-instrument and environmental-monitoring business founded in2004 by Hubert de Jonge and Gadi Rothenberg as an Aarhus University spin-out. Its patented passive SorbiCell sampling technology captures dissolved substances as water flows through a cartridge and uses a tracer to estimate the sampled volume. Laboratory analysis yields a concentration representative of the deployment period. It supports groundwater, surface-water, drainage, industrial-water and wastewater monitoring without an electric pump. This is deep technology based on chemistry, materials, patented sampling devices and field validation; AI or neuroscience applications are not established by these sources. This profile follows the original business and its continuing Sorbisense product/service unit. The original Danish Sorbisense A/S used CVR27580807, documented in a Danish Environmental Protection Agency published report. A registry-derived history identifies that original legal company as Datoselskabet af28.januar2004 A/S and reports voluntary liquidation onOctober2,2019. Eurofins acquired the business in2017; Eurofins' own brochure and current site confirm continuing Sorbisense services. Current operating Sorbisense A/S is a secondary name of Eurofins Miljø A/S CVR28848196 and is not the original legal company. The original company is therefore not presented as an independent current employer. Hubert de Jonge's founder and CEO affiliation is established historically by the2010 investor release. Gadi Rothenberg is the historical co-founder and an academic chemist at the University of Amsterdam. Current Eurofins Sorbisense product pages name Alexander Tøt as key account manager; that product-service affiliation is explicitly distinguished from employment by the original liquidated company. Exact private staff, a complete historical statutory board and current specialist roster remain unverified. Genuine named institutional portraits and the authentic portfolio-published Sorbisense brand mark are used; the cartoon currently served by Rothenberg's personal profile is excluded as a headshot. Capnova's own portfolio history states investment in2004 and exit in2017. Its predecessor Østjysk Innovation, Agro Business Innovation and two unnamed business angels supplied early capital and advice. The2005 European Commission assessment reports an EUR800,000 company valuation and25% ownership acquired by Østjysk Innovation; neither figure is treated as a proved EUR200,000 cash ticket. Vækstfonden's own June9,2010 release confirms new equity capital of an undisclosed million-kroner amount. No exact ticket, priced valuation, lead status or additional current financing is inferred. The2017 acquisition, undivided research-project budgets and laboratory service revenue are not fresh equity rounds.
