In 2004 VTC strategically decided to develop several first generation diagnostic tests in order to gain assay development experience and credibility. These first generation tests also provided the basis for the development of the second generation quantitative magnetic food safety tests.
Several first generation human and animal health diagnostic tests are scheduled for limited market introduction in 2008.
- Tetanus - Launched in France and Germany in April 2008 this is a lateral flow test for use in hospitals and walk in clinics.
- Brucella - A live farm gate test in an ELISA format that is expected to become the French Food Safety Agency (AFSSA) reference test
- Salmonella - A live farm gate test in an ELISA format. Currently awaiting Canadian certification from the CFIA.
- Leptospirosis - A lateral flow test for launch in France and licensed to Axcell Laboratories.
