SensiDNAzima: A Field Test for Salmon Diseases
A Chilean aquaculture diagnostic project developing a DNAzyme-based test for detecting Piscirickettsia salmonis without specialized laboratory equipment.
Field notes
The proposed workflow combines target-RNA recognition with a catalytic DNA molecule, then routes the resulting signal to a visual lateral-flow readout. The page identifies SRS as its first application and limits the current claim to a TRL 3 laboratory prototype. Its comparison table includes a target cost of USD 5–15 per sample and a sample volume of no more than 50 µL, while field validation and SERNAPESCA approval remain pending.
