Armed with results in minutes instead of days or weeks, the user can make quicker decisions and initiate more timely action.
Water
We all depend on access to clean water. Knowing when a municipal water supply, groundwater, lake, or pond is compromised can help save lives. While water management experts and treatment facilities have protocols to test for chemical and biological contamination, results aren’t always available on demand.
Food Safety
When it comes to the food industry, nothing ruins trust or a business’ reputation faster than an outbreak of foodborne illness. Most restaurants, industrial kitchens, and food packaging plants do their best to adopt and practice excellent safety protocols, but sometimes it isn’t enough.
Animal Health
Keeping animals comfortable and healthy is the goal of veterinarians, livestock producers, and pet owners. However, bacteria, diseases, and contaminants threaten animals’ health in many ways from the farm to the exam room and even at the boarding kennel.
Agriculture
Applying crop inputs and crop protection products is a necessary part of running a profitable farm operation. Challenges to their freedom to operate can arise when farmers and custom applicators are required to confirm the cleanliness of tanks, sprayers, and applicators, as well as the accuracy of product application.
Industrial
There’s no doubt chemicals play important roles in our lives. They protect crops, people, and animals; help us create useful products; and enable many of our workplaces to run more efficiently. They also require proper handling and care to ensure incompatible substances don’t mix during manufacturing, storage, and transportation.
Human Health
The COVID-19 pandemic heightened our awareness of the need to rapidly detect viruses so steps can be taken to mitigate the spread of infection. In the case of a novel pathogen, the need to quickly develop accurate tests that can be used at the point-of-care is of paramount importance.
