Experts from the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences launched 3 units of the CZU mobiLAB - a mobile laboratory for the detection of infectious diseases.

Mobile laboratories CZU mobiLAB were developed last year as part of the project "Prevention of Covid-19 Proliferation in Exposed Locations and Increasing the Resilience of Local Communities in Zambia (CORE4)", in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. These unique laboratories will be used in hard-to-reach areas of Zambia to detect infectious agents using molecular biological methods. The laboratories are unique for their small size, weight, and easy assembly. The equipment can be easily transported by off-road car and the whole laboratory can be set up within one hour.
