There is an urgent need for fast and accurate diagnostic tests in the current Ebola crisis. The rapid diagnosis of EVD during early and late stage of infection is a decisive step for risk assessment and for guidance to physicians to take the necessary decisions to limit...

The recent outbreak in China caused by the emerging nCoV virus is challenging the level of global readiness from governments, public organizations and community to face and manage both its social and health consequences. Once the emergence is recognized and identified, ...

The DECISION consortium is developing a new class of diagnostic platform that will transform the fight against pandemics. The low-cost, miniaturised, disposable molecular diagnostic platform will allow for patient testing virtually anywhere, within a few minutes, with l...

This project focuses on rapid (40min), simple, Point-of-Need COVID-19 testing, e.g. surgery/home (via first responders)/transit points of entry. BG Research (BGR) has developed direct from crude sample detection of viral pathogens – the QuRapID-XF technology, removing r...

We are proposing to develop a molecular assay for the safe, rapid, specific and sensitive detection of Ebola Virus Infection in capillary (or venous) blood samples combining ALTONA’s Pan-filo screening IVD test with the existing Alere™ q point of care molecular diagnost...
