Products
Sample-preparation and concentration medium for microscopy
A liquid medium and associated protocol for collection and preparation of venous blood samples that preserves motile spirochetes, suppresses artefact formation, immobilizes non-target blood components, and concentrates target organisms for microscopy and downstream molecular testing.
Automated slide-scanning and image-analysis system
An integrated slide-scanning microscope and image-analysis software intended to automatically scan prepared slides, preselect candidate fields containing morphologies consistent with target organisms, and provide outputs for human validation.

Services
Microscopy-based direct-detection laboratory service
Laboratory screening of venous blood samples using a standardized sample-preparation medium and dark-field microscopy to detect motile spirochetes, with human review and integration with confirmatory testing.
Molecular and serological confirmatory testing
Confirmatory PCR on concentrated samples and serological assays (immunofluorescence, Western blot, ELISA) to validate microscopy findings and provide immunological or subtype information.
Automated microscopy and image-analysis deployment
Deployment of automated slide-scanning systems coupled with image-analysis software to pre-screen prepared slides, reduce manual review time, and enable higher-throughput microscopy workflows.
Clinical validation and performance study services
Design and coordination of multi-center diagnostic performance studies to assess sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of direct-detection workflows; engagement with independent laboratories and clinical sites for validation.
Training and implementation support
Theoretical and practical training for clinicians and laboratory staff on standardized sample collection, sample preparation, microscopy interpretation, and automated analysis workflows, plus ongoing technical support.
