ADI's TruStrip Meat Adulteration Rapid Test to the Rescue

A recent Yahoo news article about presence of foreign meats in ground burger meat, or for that matter, presence of meat in ground vegetarian burger is a clear cause for alarm!  This link has the details of the news article.

Fortunately, a simple solution is at hand.  ADI has been marketing several kits for rapidly testing for the presence of meats or foreign meats where they shouldn't be present.  The test kits are very simple (similar to home pregnance test kits) and can be used by anyone without any need for special skills.  More details about the TruStrip RDT Meat Adulteration Tests can be found here

ADI to Participate in the International Zika Summit 2016

An International Zika Summit has been organized to bring together scientists and public health professionals around the world working on Zika. The speed and extent of this outbreak, which the WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, requires open collaborations between researchers, the public health community and the public. This meeting will provide a venue for open such discussions.  ADI will be participating in this summit and present the availability of kits and reagents that the research community could use for developing countermeasures against the spread of this disease.  For further details about the summit, please visit http://www.zikasummit2016.org/

ADI participates in NIH-NIAID sponsored meeting on Zika virus

The Zika virus epidemic that originated in other parts of the world has now made its way into US and has become a critically important research area for development of diagnostics, vaccines and therapeutics.  As a new disease that shows all the signs of becoming a global epidemic, there is an urgent need for reagents and tools that are necessary for developing methods to combat this disease.  The first Zika Virus conference (Zika Virus in the Americas: An HHS Expert Consultation to Accelerate the Development of Countermeasures) was recently concluded at North Bethesda in Maryland (Mar 28 - 29, 2016).  At this conference, Dr. Masarrat Ali had an opportunity to interact with several members of the research community to discuss and present reagents that are immediately available from ADI and understand other needs of the community in order to develop countermeasures in a timely manner.  ADI is the first company to develop reagents designed to help researchers across the world who are engaged in Zika virus research.  For additional details on these reagents, please visit http://4adi.com/commerce/catalog/srhkeyword.cz
