The anvajo team has created a portable tool for point-of-care fluid analysis that has the potential to be employed in a range of sectors. The company says, “Our team is working on the world’s most compact universal platform for fluid analysis, the “fluidlab.” It combines the instrument itself, a software suite and multifunctional sample carriers.”

The “fluidlab”​ combines two central laboratory technologies, Spectroscopy and Microscopy, in one portable diagnostic device. The performance of each test is supported by a custom-designed sample carrier system that functions in processing and delivering the fluid to the analyser.
