Competition
Organizations such as Unitaid or the World Health Organisation publish yearly documents on the competitive landscape of malaria diagnostics. The UNITAID report can be found here.
A great number of malaria diagnostics methods already exists, but most of them are still constrained inside laboratories, as shown in the image below (image courtesy of UNITAID)
In the table below we compare a great number of competitors in the field of medical diagnostics. Not all of them necessarily offer products for Malaria, but we feel the technology they posses might be applicable.
When judging their potential threat, we used a scoring system based on our business and design requirements list.
| Name | Company | Type | Speed | Sample | Cost | Requirements | Application | Picture |
| dotLab | Alexa | real time Immuno Assay | 15 - 90 min | Blood | tbd | 100-240V, 250W |  |
|
| Patterned Paper | Diagnostics for All | Immuno Assay | 10 min | Blood | tbd | none | Liver test in development |  |
| Malaria Pf/Pv Detect | InBios | Immuno Assay | 10 min | Serum | tbd | Centrifuge | Malaria |  |
| OraQuick | OraSure | Immuno Assay | 40 min | Salvia | tbd | none | HIV |  |
| Handheld Analyzer | Claros | Immuno Assay | 15 min | Blood | $100 per device | none | HIV, syphilis and anemia in development |  |
