A minituarized disposable molecular diagnostics platform for combatting coronavirus infections

Project description

Novel diagnostic platform for COVID-19 rapid test

The EU-funded DECISION project is developing a new class of COVID-19 diagnostic platforms and tests in a joint effort by teams from Italy, Spain and Germany. The diagnostic platform will enable the rapid detection of COVID-19 infections on-site in any possible setting, including drive-through testing centres, airports or medical offices. The low-cost, miniature, disposable diagnostic platform is powered by a next-generation nucleic acid amplification technology called pulse controlled amplification (PCA®), providing sample-to-answer workflows in less than 15 minutes. The objective is to deliver the molecular diagnostic platform and coronavirus test within five months after the start of the project.
