Crispr
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) is a genome-editing technology derived from the bacterial defense system strategy to cut the DNA of viruses and other invading bodies. The method we are utilizing, DETECTR, involves the use of CRISPR-Cas12a to accurately detect a DNA sequence and cut a fluorescent probe to release light upon detection.
Microfluidics
Microfluidics unites the reliability of lab tests with the integrated efficiency of a printed circuit board. It tackles the challenges of controlling fluid flow in micromillimeters sized channel geometries and facilitating complex on-chip biological protocols both spatially and temporally. In accordance with the international trends of integrating technologies to ensure reliable use, scalability and user availability, Volatect's chip is the result of improving multiple iterations on iGEM's diagnostics track over the years and a pursuit of high standards both in signal quality and chemical contamination prevention.
WEB API
An API (Application Programming Interface) simply put is a way for applications to communicate with each other. The Volatect API is intended to be used by medical researchers. We believe that the data that comes out of air travel disease reports from our device could help immensely in the analysis and prediction of outbreaks around the world as we provide disease diagnosis in relation to the nationality and the flight path of the passengers.

CRISPR
CRISPR technology is a simple yet powerful tool for editing genomes. It allows researchers to easily alter DNA sequences and modify gene function. Its many potential applications include correcting genetic defects, treating and preventing the spread of diseases and improving crops. However, its promise also raises ethical concerns.In popular usage, "CRISPR" (pronounced "crisper") is shorthand for "CRISPR-Cas9." CRISPRs are specialized stretches of DNA. The protein Cas9 (or "CRISPR-associated") is an enzyme that acts like a pair of molecular scissors, capable of cutting strands of DNA.
Microfluidics
Microfluidics unites the reliability of lab tests with the integrated efficiency of a printed circuit board. It tackles the challenges of controlling fluid flow in micromillimeters sized channel geometries and facilitating complex on-chip biological protocols both spatially and temporally. In accordance with the international trends of integrating technologies to ensure reliable use, scalability and user availability, Volatect's chip is the result of improving multiple iterations on iGEM's diagnostics track over the years and a pursuit of high standards both in signal quality and chemical contamination prevention.
Volatect API
We built a WEB API that allows secure access to the data we collect using our device. Medical researchers can now use the data we collect from passengers in airports to predict and report disease outbreaks before they happen.
