New technology opens a new chapter in rapid shrimp disease detection
In the aquaculture industry, shrimp farming is one of the important ones. However, breeding diseases are common and difficult to judge, and judgment based on breeding experience alone is not reliable. Such as shrimp hemocyte iridovirus (SHIV), shrimp white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), shrimp acute hepatopancreas necrosis (AHPND), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (AHPND), shrimp hepatica enterocystis (EHP),infectious subcutaneous and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV), etc.These diseases are highly contagious, and some diseases have high fatality rates and rapid onset, causing huge economic losses. At this time, it is very important to have a technology for rapid and accurate detection of shrimp diseases.
Amp-Future Biotech's multi-enzyme isothermal rapid nucleic acid amplification technology MIRA can complete rapid nucleic acid detection for viruses, pathogens, bacteria, etc. within 20 minutes. It is suitable for shrimp disease detection on the front line of farming. Whether it is a detection station animal health shop or a terminal farmer, you can get started with the operation after simple training and complete the detection independently. The results are accurate and reliable, reaching the same level as PCR. Coupled with the 15-minute magnetic bead extraction process for sample pre-treatment, the overall detection process only takes 35 minutes.

Precision molecular diagnostic techniques: diagnostic applications for influenza and dengue viruses
The change of season serves as a high prevalence point for influenza viruses, launching a new round of challenges to our immune systems.
These viruses have been a hot public health concern, and there has been a lot of concern about protective measures, and how to quickly diagnose whether or not you are infected, treat it in a timely manner, and cut off the means of transmission.
Influenza A and Influenza B
Recently, under the influence of cold air in the north, influenza A and B are frequent, as they are usually more active in the fall and winter seasons, lasting from the fall of each year to the spring of the following year.
At present, the main epidemics for the A H1N1 and H3N2, children and the elderly especially need to pay attention to. The virus spreads through droplets, when an infected person coughs or sneezes, the virus will be spread to nearby people through droplets in the air; in addition, it may also be spread through contact with surfaces contaminated with the virus, which can rapidly cause a large number of cases.
Clinical symptoms are: high fever, cough, sore throat, nasal congestion and muscle pain.
Protection against dengue virus
The Southwest, with its warm climate and high humidity, is prone to dengue virus, mainly through mosquito bites, and its vectors are the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, which are active during the daytime, especially in the early morning and at dusk, so groups that are often plagued by mosquito bites need to pay attention to it.
After infection, the virus spreads quickly and painfully, and the clinical symptoms are: high fever, headache, eye pain, joint and muscle pain, rash, bleeding tendency.
Therefore, rapid diagnosis has a very important clinical value, which is conducive to the timely completion of the diagnosis of the disease, to take therapeutic measures to reduce the harm of the disease on the patient.
Interpretation sharing: high viral prevalence and timely diagnosis by molecular diagnostic techniques.
Molecular diagnostic technology: timely stalking of viruses
In this invisible war, molecular diagnostic technology is like a sharp sword.
Traditional diagnostic methods require about 2H, while the nucleic acid thermostatic rapid test technology is shortened to 40min, and the MIRA technology (Multi-enzymatic Rapid Nucleic Acid Amplification) is even shorter than 5-20min, which makes us able to make an accurate diagnosis in the shortest possible time after the invasion of the virus.
MIRA technology rapid test, rapid protection of life and health
AmpFuture's Multi-Enzyme Rapid Amplification of Nucleic Acids (MIRA technology) can amplify nucleic acids at a constant temperature of 39°C-42°C, which can be completed quickly in 20min, and the sensitivity can reach the same level as PCR.
In addition, MIRA technology does not rely on complex equipment, and can be operated on-site in non-laboratory environments and primary healthcare units, making it simple, convenient and quick to diagnose.
Diversified forms of reagent products: liquid, lyophilized, microspheres, etc.; Diversity of display results: gel electrophoresis, fluorescence curves, colloidal gold test strips, etc.; Stable performance, easy to operate, convenient for storage and transportation.
At the same time, with MIRA as the core platform technology, we have developed a series of ancillary products, such as "Ultra-fast Nucleic Acid Release Technology", "Dual-channel Constant Temperature Fluorescence Detector", "Integrated Fully-automatic Closed Detection System", "Self-detection Nucleic Acid Detection Device" and ", and are striving to create a total solution for the field of rapid molecular detection.

World TB Day,Amp Future is working on it!
March 24 is World TB Day, and this year's theme is "Together, you and I, to End the TB epidemic."
Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic respiratory infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is seriously harmful to health. TB is often spread through respiratory droplets and close contact. There is no strong vaccine for TB, and prevention and detection are key.
Due to the relatively backward economic development of some countries or regions and the lack of medical resources, general screening can not be close to patients, resulting in tuberculosis detection and other difficulties.
Epu Future Biology provides a set of solutions for primary care and field rapid inspection.
Using MIRA rapid nucleic acid amplification technology as a platform, nucleic acid extraction can be completed in 5min, and nucleic acid amplification can be completed in 20min, which greatly improves the screening efficiency.
With small testing equipment, no need for professional laboratories, when the disease occurs, directly carry the bag to the first line for quick inspection.
