About

Designed,
and manufactured in the US.

Founded in 2024 in the United States by a team of PhD biochemists and veterinarians. The test is researched, developed, and manufactured in the US — then shipped to camel-producing regions worldwide.

Our story

Camels have been bred for 5,000 years. The diagnostic toolkit hasn't kept up.

Across the GCC, East Africa, and Australia, more than 35 million camels are managed by herders who confirm pregnancy by visual observation, palpation, or a day-long round trip to the nearest ELISA lab.

The value of the test isn't a new target or a different day — it's the same answer, in the same field visit, with a couple of drops of whole blood. No lab, no centrifuge, no waiting three days.

Principles

What guides the work.

01

The test, not the platform

We make a single product, and we make it well.

02

Field over lab

Every design decision begins with the herder in 40°C heat, two hours from the nearest lab.

03

Numbers speak

We will publish our validation data openly. Specificity and sensitivity will be independently verifiable, not just marketed.
