Nanopore Diagnostics is developing the iNDxer, a testing platform that will put microbiology testing into the pocket of the end user, saving time and money. Testing that once took days and highly trained professionals will instead be produced rapidly by anyone. Staged development is planned for the platform with a start in low-barrier aquaculture veterinarian applications. By informing aquaculture facilities in near real-time when dangerous pathogens are present the iNDxer will enable swift and effective remediation. This will reduce death and diminished biological activity leading to a 60% reduction in economic loss due to microbial disease in salmon and other farmed fish.
