Avicena Systems is a Western Australian private technology company, backed by the Western Australian government, formed to develop a low-cost ultra-high throughput LAMP-based screening system for COVID-19. Its system is able to develop 100,000 people per day.
Initially designed to test for COVID, the testing technology also supports a range of other detection test kits for pathogens such as dengue fever, tuberculosis and malaria.
At the 2021 annual WA Incite Awards, Avicena won the Startup Of The Year award and the Transformative Solutions and Industry Project Of The Year categories.
