OCCIDENT further strengthens its portfolio in the field of diagnostics and leads Avelo’s oversubscribed 2.2 million seed financing round.
The Zurich-based diagnostics startup develops a simple breath collector to improve the diagnosis of tuberculosis and other respiratory infections that cause pneumonia – the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. Physicians will be able to use this non-invasive sampling tool to painlessly collect a patient’s breath sample from the respiratory tract, particularly from the lower respiratory tract, and analyze it with existing PCR testing infrastructure for fast and accurate diagnosis.
