 The test works by using a tracheal or cloacal fluid sample from the bird, which is then placed into a cartridge and inserted into the analyzer. The device uses a proprietary molecular testing platform to investigate the sample and the results are provided in about 30 minutes. The device itself is built to withstand life on the farm, with third-party tests showing it is accurate even after being dropped, shaken, dunked in water, and cleaned with industrial bleach.
