Human Biosecurity

Avicena Sentinel enables Biosecurity Preparedness in a Dynamic World

Avicena revolutionises Human Biosecurity Preparedness, empowering nations and organisations to rapidly detect and monitor infectious human diseases at any scale.

The Rising Threat of Infectious Disease in a Globalised World

Our interconnected world amplifies the threats of infectious disease. The pandemic highlighted the urgency for biosecurity measures in line with modern realities.

To protect people and economies, pathogen screening must be accurate, rapid, scalable, and affordable, enabling agile outbreak responses within hours, not days or weeks.  

Recognising the significance of human biosecurity, governments and organisations are increasingly focused on advanced solutions for prompt and scalable responses to potential threats.

Avicena Sentinel

Guarding against Human Biosecurity Threats

Combining fast, accurate, scalable and affordable pathogen screening, the Avicena Sentinel ULTRA is the ideal pathogen screening system in the defence of human pathogens.

The system has a unique surge capability allowing hourly processing of up to 5,000 samples if required, and securely reports results within 30 minutes.

A Versatile Platform for Robust Biodefence

As a platform based on LAMP, a sensitive technology similar to PCR, Sentinel can readily adapt to existing tests for a wide variety of existing and emerging human pathogens.
