Nyan for breaking the wall in infectious disease diagnosis"},"content":{"rendered":"

Congratulations to Dr. Chris D. Nyan and his team of biomedical professionals for the breakthrough in developing a multiplex test kit for about seven (7) infectious pathogens including SARS COV-2 (COVID-19) in Africa. The good news is that the technological breakthrough led by the one-time aspiring lawyer and international politician but now a biomedical scientist detects pathogens in a maximum of 45 mins compared to routine methods which do in about 2 hours singly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This never comes as a surprise. Sharing a platform with such an astute scientist and a connoisseur in his field of practice during the webinar series organized by the CelebrateLab West Africa in collaboration with the Ghana Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists (GAMLS), Africa Bio Inc and the Ghana Health Service makes me know this breakthrough is even long overdue.<\/span><\/p>\n

This technology must be given all the support it needs to expand to benefit humanity. <\/span><\/p>\n

Congratulations on the great achievement with your team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In most African countries, there is a lack of sophisticated diagnostic devices & limited expertise in high-tech diagnostics of infectious diseases. This hinders the clinical decision-making ability of healthcare providers. The Nyan- test is portable, affordable, fast & easy to use in any setting. Detecting & distinguishing multiple infections, whereas most testing methods take three to seven days, the device gives test results in ten to forty minutes. It has been awarded a United States Patent<\/span><\/p>\n

The Nyan-Test is portable, affordable, fast, and easy to use in any setting. It detects and distinguishes multiple infections (including HIV, HCV, HBV, Ebola, Sars-CoV-1, COVID-19, MERS, Dengue, West Nile, Yellow Fever, Malaria, and many more). Whereas most testing methods take three hours to seven days, this testing device for infectious diseases gives test results in ten to forty minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
