Development and evaluation of the OptiSolve Pathfinder optical assay for viral particle detection on surfaces in environmental monitoring
OptiSolve Pathfinder is a diagnostic tool that allows the easy identification of contamination on surfaces through imaging. Although viral and bacterial organisms are always a threat, during the current COVID-19 pandemic, the ability to easily identify and quantify viruses is of primary importance. The Pathfinder solution developed by OptiSolve will significantly improve quality of care, health, and safety of the global population through the detection of contaminated surfaces. In order to allow this technology to be more easily accessible and widely used by the general public, a system with real-time feedback will be optimized and tested during this project.
