Growing demand exists for field deployable diagnostic applications to supplement and support the work of existing diagnostic laboratories in Australia.
Molecular diagnostic tools can underpin many on-farm management decisions that improve productivity in the modern farm environment and most importantly provide vital early warning and confirmation of numerous biosecurity threats including endemic and exotic animal diseases.
D'Central's laboratory tests can be run remotely, anywhere, without jeapordising performance.
D'Central employs a highly skilled team with over 30 years experience working in the Life Science community. Our skills include expertise in handling and identifying Group 1, 2 and 3 microorganisms, and developing & analysing DNA detection assays from microorganisms. We source and supply cutting edge molecular based components by partnering with leading global Biotechnology companies.
D'Central connects with groups who require DNA testing solutions, and work with them to provide a complete and robust workflow using cutting edge technology. We support this uptake by providing training in the complete workflow from sample preparation to data analysis and storage. For groups new to PCR, we can assist you to determine the optimal workflow solution for your application, by connecting you with the right reagents and platforms for the best outcome. D'Central can also analyse your existing workflows to help improve cost, performance and turnaround time.
We operate a fully equipped mobile response laboratory, deployable anywhere required, without the need for calibration of equipment. This response increases our capacity to take the same laboratory test anywhere in the field and run it producing equivalent, if not better, results in far less time that it would take to have the sample sent to a laboratory.
Fully Deployable Disease Surveillance
Onsite Testing = Improved Sample Viability. Current diagnostic procedures rely on field visits by vets or paraprofessionals, collection of samples, packaging and transportation back to the laboratory and subsequent preparation and testing of samples. Results are then entered into a reporting system and sent to the responsible authority. These processes can take considerable time and may be subject to delays transportation delays, resulting in sample degradation.
Lithe and adaptive to emerging biosecurity threats:
D'Central's molecular systems are capable of carrying out multiple assays at the same time.
This allows additional analysis to be carried out for a single agent or provided as a multi-plex format with the capability to screen for numerous agents in parallel to provide a clear diagnostic result, rather than the more usual disease exclusion.
The platform can be quickly engaged and adapted to meet any new biosecurity need or demand in a short time frame.
Cloud Data Management
Results are confidentially sent directly back to a mobile phone OR transmitted directly from test site to decision makers.
