ZYTCA Unveils UlfaQ™: A Breakthrough In-Clinic qPCR Solution for Pet Diseases
UlfaQ™ is transforming the way of molecular diagnosis in veterinary practices.
Faster Results, Better Outcomes With UlfaQ™, clinics can transition from days of waiting for reference lab results to on-the-spot diagnoses. The 35-minute sample-to-result workflow means veterinarians can promptly identify infections, begin targeted treatment, and ultimately improve patient outcomes. Portable and User-Friendly Designed with convenience in mind, the UlfaQ™ qPCR device is lightweight and portable, and comes with an integrated tablet for streamlined control and results monitoring. The intuitive interface guides veterinary teams through every step, minimizing the learning curve often associated with advanced molecular diagnostics. High-Performance Reagents A key differentiator of UlfaQ™ qPCR is its “secret formula” reagent, meticulously engineered for high resistance to PCR inhibitors. This ensures highly accurate results across various sample types. Furthermore, the lyophilized reagent remains stable at room temperature, eliminating the need for refrigeration and simplifying supply logistics and operation for clinics of all sizes. Significant Cost Savings Adopting in-clinic PCR with UlfaQ™ can lower diagnostic expenses by up to 40% compared to sending samples to external reference labs. Practices can reinvest these savings in additional services, improved patient care, or staff development—delivering greater overall value to both clinics and pet owners. Gold-Standard Reliability UlfaQ™’s clinical validation demonstrates quality and accuracy on par with gold-standard qPCR methods used in reference laboratories. Not only does the system deliver definitive positive/negative outcomes, but it also provides Ct (Cycle Threshold) values, offering veterinarians deeper insights into infection status and progression. “As part of our commitment to advancing companion animal health, UlfaQ™ puts the power of qPCR into the hands of everyday practitioners,” says Hong Chang, CEO of ZYTCA. “By combining speed, precision, and affordability, this device addresses critical challenges in veterinary diagnostics.” About ZYTCA ZYTCA is an emerging leader in veterinary diagnostics based in Oxford, UK, dedicated to pioneering innovations that elevate animal healthcare. Driven by a mission to empower veterinarians with state-of-the-art tools, the company invests in research and development to offer diagnostic products that are both scientifically robust and user-friendly.
