Periodic Reporting for period 1 - CellCount (CellCount, a revolutionary technology platform to solve current problems with microbiological contamination in water and food industries.)
Reporting period: 2017-11-01 to 2018-02-28
rqmicro has developed the CellCount solution for microbiological testing composed of the rqmicro’s proprietary device and disposable testing kits (consumables) for pathogens in food and water. CellCount reduces the time significantly by providing unequivocal, quantitative results allowing users to act immediately. With it's single cell-counting capability, users have peace of mind that the rapid results are also reliable. It involves an automated one-step operation that does not require qualified personnel and eliminates operator bias thereby improving workflows for customers.
The overall objectives of the project are to complete product development (instrument and kit optimisation), test it with accredited laboratories and demonstrate the completed platform technology with potential customers.
