Point-of-care parasite diagnostics
Parasitic worms are a major threat to animal health, causing disease, death, and economic losses for farmers and horse owners. For instance, worm control in the Australian sheep industry costs over $600 million per year. Current diagnostics are slow and expensive, often costing as much as treatment. Our rapid, point-of-care diagnostics, paired with the latest parasite control education, will lead to healthier animals and less financial stress on their owners. One of our tools, designed for sheep producers, reduces diagnostic time by 90%, allowing for quicker decisions on worm control. This helps prolong the effectiveness of treatments and enhances overall animal welfare.
