Project Period: August 2025 to April 2026

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):

TETmedical seeks to address an unmet need for rapid and highly sensitive point-of-care (PoC) test for ultra-rapid detection of Avian Flu and its subtypes. This novel testing platform is based on tethered enzyme technology (TET). In order to advance the development and commercialization of this technology, in this project, we will optimize the assay for use with poultry or cow milk samples. This will enhance the agricultural and public health impact and commercial value our diagnostic technology.
