NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – German firm GNA Biosolutions announced last week the start of a two-year collaborative project to develop its laser PCR technology into a diagnostic test for the Ebola virus.

As part of the collaboration, researchers at Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic will also develop magnetic beads to bind the virus, and the assay will be tested at the National Institute for Infectious Diseases "Lazzaro Spallanzani," followed by field testing in Sierra Leone.
