AI Article Synopsis
- The paper introduces a new diagnostic device that utilizes bio-sensing and photonics technologies for quick, on-site detection of viruses affecting pigs, helping address both emerging and ongoing epidemics.
- This device is being developed as part of a project funded by the EU Commission, aimed at enabling non-specialized personnel to perform early detection of selected swine viruses.
- It can test various biological samples like oral fluids, faeces, blood, or nasal swabs, providing immediate threat assessments and showcasing the innovative technologies involved in its design and functionality.
Article Abstract
In this paper, we present the concept of a novel diagnostic device for on-site analyses, based on the use of advanced bio-sensing and photonics technologies to tackle emerging and endemic viruses causing swine epidemics and significant economic damage in farms. The device is currently under development in the framework of the EU Commission co-funded project. The overall concept behind the project is to develop a method for an early and fast on field detection of selected swine viruses by non-specialized personnel. The technology is able to detect pathogens in different types of biological samples, such as oral fluids, faeces, blood or nasal swabs. The device will allow for an immediate on-site threat assessment. In this work, we present the overall concept of the device, its architecture with the technical requirements, and all the used innovative technologies that contribute to the advancements of the current state of the art.
