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 veterinary sector

Veterinary

There are an increasing number of lateral flow tests available for helping to assess and monitor animal health. Vets, farmers, pet owners and breeders are benefitting from rapid diagnostics at the point of care.

The scope of conditions that lateral flow technology (LFT) can test includes fertility and pregnancy monitoring. This improves the efficiency, effectiveness and health outcomes for breeding animals. Similarly, LFT is helping to detect and monitor disease, infection and illnesses in pets and livestock. The tech’ is also being used globally to track, manage and restrict the spread of disease between humans and domestic, farm and wild animals.
