Trovan – Microchips of unparalleled quality

Ngaio now represent Trovan microchips for the NZ companion animal market.

Trovan have revolutionised microchip design resulting in a product with fewer than one third the components of a conventional microchip, thereby ensuring superior reliability of the transponders over time. Trovan microchips make use of a patented direct bonding technology which results in a more durable connection between the integrated circuit and the antenna, also contributing to the product’s superior reliability. Trovan microchips are made with laser encoded integrated circuits. Laser programmed ICs are less susceptible to electromagnetic interference which can potentially harm EEPROM (programmable) microchip configurations. This greater reliability makes Trovan the logical choice for use in companion animals, offering unmatched dependability and assuring peace of mind for veterinarians and pet owners alike.

Ngaio Diagnostics appointed Optigene Distributor in New Zealand

OptiGene has developed innovative products that support sensitive and specific detection of bacteria and viruses for use in the fields of plant health, food safety, veterinary medicine, environmental monitoring and healthcare.  Bio-defence and forensics are also key markets that OptiGene addresses, either directly or through its growing network of international distributors.  The company has exploited its expertise in both instrument design and enzymology to develop a sophisticated open platform that will support all isothermal amplification methods.  Ultra-sensitive molecular detection that has been constrained to laboratory use by highly-qualified personnel and taking hours to complete can now be deployed to point of application and run with very little training, producing results in single minutes.

The Genie II instrument is the flagship product of OptiGene and has been in full production since the spring of 2011.  Genie II is now found in a variety of diagnostic settings around the world.  It is supported by specially-designed plastic strips that have lockable caps and that are easy to handle.  Enzymes are available in the form of several master mixes that feature combinations of high-speed operation, inherent RT activity and thermo stability.  A continuous programme of development is maintained at OptiGene in order to satisfy the evolving demands of its customers and the wider market.  New instruments are planned that will include a smaller device that will suit on-site use and more sophisticated optical arrangements that can support multiplexed assays.  Improvements in the company’s enzymes are on-going with faster and more stable master mixes planned for release.  OptiGene can also offer to develop variants of its products on behalf of OEM customers and these can adopt the customer’s corporate branding and include special features.

Hygiena Micro-Snap Product Range

Micro-Snap is a rapid test for detection and enumeration of specific bacteria. The test uses a novel bioluminogenic test reaction that generates light when enzymes that are characteristic of specific bacteria react with specialized substrates to produce light. The light generating signal is then quantified in a sensitive, hand held Luminometer. Results are available in 1 to 7 hours, depending upon required level of detection. Single figure organisms can be detected in 7 hours, enabling Micro-Snap to give results in the same working day or shift.

Applications include, production surface monitoring, raw materials and finished product testing and it can be used with solids, liquids and filterable products.

Benefits of Micro-Snap include:

  • Results in 7 hours or less.
  • Low levels of detection.
  • Pass/Fail result at required detection levels are easy to understand.
  • Quantitative results (CFU counts)
  • Qualitative results (presence/absence)
  • Equivalent results to other culturing methods.
  • No specific sample preparation required.
  • Independently validated.
