Problem
Current white blood cell (WBC) analysis methods often rely on expensive, bulky equipment and trained professionals, limiting accessibility and affordability, particularly in point-of-care settings and resource-constrained environments. Existing high-throughput platforms may offer a range of tests beyond WBC analysis, increasing costs and complexity when only a simple WBC count is needed.
Solution
Rizlab Health's CytoTracker is a compact, fully electronic cytometer designed for rapid WBC count analysis. This pocket-sized device delivers results within minutes using a wireless, AI-driven platform. The CytoTracker utilizes a disposable plug-and-play cartridge and reusable readout unit to quantify total white blood cell count, absolute neutrophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, and percentages. The device aims to provide accessible and affordable blood testing in various settings, including clinical labs, pharmacies, and remote locations, filling the gap where current instruments are not easily accessible or affordable.
Target Audience
The primary users are clinical labs and healthcare providers, with potential expansion to consumers, developing countries, pharmacies, schools, space health, militaries, and disaster zones.
