Iranian Nanotechnology Firm Produces Rapid Diagnosis Kits
Engineer Keyvan Dabir, the executive director of Zist Abzar Pajouhan company, elaborated on the industrial capabilities of the company and its products, saying that medical rapid diagnosis kits are the first product of the technological company.
Production of rapid diagnosis kits, automatic drug or chemical extraction device that works based on nanoparticles like nanosilica, nanofiber-based breathing masks, nucleic acid purification and extraction devices and devices for detection of DNA and RNA in blood samples, nanofiber-based inhibitors and beauty masks that are made in the three areas of anti-wrinkle, brightening and hydrating masks are among the main activities of the company, he added.
In a relevant development earlier this year, researchers at an Iranian company had also developed diagnosis kits in which gold nanoparticles were used to detect viruses and narcotics precisely.
Gold nanoparticles are widely used in biomedical and diagnostic applications.
The company used nanoparticles to detect narcotics, hormones, and hepatitis and Covid-19 viruses, which, according to them, led to more accurate and faster diagnosis and reduced production costs.
The rapid detection kits of the company reduce the response time, increase the detection accuracy, increase the quality, and reduce the price.
