One Health Approach - Are We Doing Enough to Address The Full Spectrum of Disease Control?

Global health systems face a persistent failure point and operational gap. Detection happens too late. Despite recent “joined-up” One Health positioning from FAO–WHO–WOAH, the operational gap remains stark. Outbreaks still start, spread and escalate before any proactive action is taken. Ensuring early detection directly at the outbreak source is critical.

Portable RT-qPCR. No Extraction. No Delay. The Holy Grail?

CENOS removes the most entrenched step in molecular testing - extraction. The patented Xtraction-Free reagent system delivers direct RT-qPCR from crude biological samples. Whole blood, saliva, swabs, plasma, and tissue can all be directly added to the reaction for testing.

Direct-from-blood Molecular Testing

Why it matters for One Health, outbreak control, and real-time decisions. Blood is the clinically critical matrix for several high-consequence infections because viraemia or systemic spread appears early, while the decision window stays short. That is true in both human and animal health. Whole blood is a priority specimen for Ebola testing, and EDTA-blood is a recommended sample for early ASFV PCR detection.

From Laboratory to Field: A New Paradigm for Direct Molecular Detection of Avian Influenza and Newcastle Disease

The CENOS platform enables real-time RT-PCR detection directly from crude biological samples, including cloacal swabs and oropharyngeal swabs. This extraction-free approach simplifies the diagnostic process while maintaining analytical sensitivity.
