Industry Applications - Medical and (much) more

Lateral flow technology's relationship with the medical and healthcare sector is well documented, but less is known about its applications in many more industries where there is a need for tests, measurements, monitoring, detection, assessments and diagnostics.

At RAPIvD, we’ve been involved with assay development across multiple sectors.

Lateral flow technology in the world of sport and fitness

Sport & Fitness

When marginal gains can make the difference between champions and also-rans, victory and defeat, profit and loss – managing and maintaining the fitness of elite sportspeople with science-backed evidence provides a competitive edge. Lab testing can cover a wide range of biomarkers but is slow and expensive. Wearable tech’ provides immediate feedback, but their scope is limited. Lateral flow technology can deliver rapid results for more markers, accurately and without the vast expense.

The consumer market for rapid diagnostics also continues to grow at all levels of the sports and fitness industry as people are increasingly committed to optimising performance and self-improvement.
