Detection kit for plant diseases.
Fast. Portable. Simple.
About Pathogen
Bringing science to people.
PathoGen is a technology that allows the detection of simultaneous infections in an easy and fast way. This technology is being developed first on vineyard infections (PathoGen Vid). Thanks to the simplicity of its design, it can be used directly on the field, without the need of laboratory equipments, giving fast results, necessary to avoid further infections. If the sample contains the specific pathogen, a positive signal is displayed by a change on the color of the reaction.

The Kit
A kit similar to a pregnancy test for plant diseases detection.

Fast
Results available in two hours, speeding response times of vineyard to potential harmful infections.

Portable
Usable directly on the field.

Simple
Eliminates the need for specialized equipment and eases the process so the same vineyard staff can perform the test.

Specific and Sensible
Specific for each microorganism, can detect with low infectious load.

Multiple Detections in One
Simultaneously detects multiple vine pathogens with a single plant sample.

Reliable
Avoids inaccuracy by eliminating most of the user interaction with the samples.
Other Services
Thanks to the help provided by others we are where we stand, so we also want to give a hand and help you achieve your goals.

Lab Diagnosis
Besides our kit, we offer molecular detection of Agrobacterium spp for plant samples in our lab. In addition if you need detection for other pathogens, we gladly can develop it.

Project Development
Doing science is not an easy job, specially for startups.
We offer consultancy services with project development, budget planning, experimental design, research services and funds application.
The Team
We are a group of young scientific bioentrepreneurs (biotech engineers) eager to make science, and break paradigms.
