Identifying & quantifying bacteria can be quick, easy, and inexpensive.
Redefining the ”normal” for bacteria testing for patients, clean environments, and food production.
Looking for a better way to test bacteria.
Alternative Method
Bacteria are grown on a nutrient plate for between 24-60 hours to form colonies which can be counted (1 colony = 1 cell). A skilled microbiologist can then identify the stains by microscopic study.
Traditional Method
ELISA
Call to Action
We are looking for pilot stage customers to trial our MVP detection assay in non-clinical settings and for antibody suppliers to co-develop improved sensitivity and establish supply and distribution agreements.
Enzyme-linked cell markers are used to identify the bacteria and give a very quick indication of the presence of bacteria and the intensity of the colour indicates relative bacteria population. With some extra steps and over longer time it’s possible to semi-quantify the data.
A Better Method
Similarly cells are tagged with an enzyme-linked marker but with the PhenoDot developing reagent in a single step we can identify the strain of bacteria and quantify by clear visible dots formed on the testing plate. Even better no equipment is needed to achieve clear results.
