30 Minute Bird Flu Test

Well the subject says it all (pretty much) but i thought i would blog this just because i have seen how difficult it is to access some of the places that Avian Influenza started. There are many parts of the developing world where it is very difficult to get to, get things (infected animals to test) out not to mention doing tests on site. If these little devices could be made cheap and rugged they could be distributed many places where people aren't as aware of its dangers so aren't as likely to go to the trouble of testing (which is arduous at the moment). Being able to test in the field will certainly go a long way towards helping control such outbreaks.
