Rapid molecular testing. Anywhere you need it.
The Alveo platform brings lab-quality pathogen detection to the point of need. A portable analyzer, single-use test cartridges, and a cloud-connected app deliver accurate results in under an hour.
Alveo Sense™ Avian Influenza
We are proud to announce the launch of two rapid, accurate, in-the-field multiplexed panels to test for all relevant strains of Avian Influenza Type A viruses, with differentiation of H5, H7, and H9 subtypes. Developed in partnership with x-Ovo, Royal GD and Pharmsure, leaders in the poultry industry, this test can accurately detect the presence of virus in both cloacal and oropharyngeal samples from poultry with highly sensitive and specific test results in 45 minutes.
Additionally, the platform has the capability to wirelessly upload time-stamped geotagged results to a common portal, providing regulatory agencies with near real-time information on the spread of the virus.
Data collection for avian influenza is haphazard and tied to a limited number of central labs, which makes tracking the spread difficult, highlighting the need for innovative, rapid, on-site testing.
The Alveo Sense Poultry Avian Influenza Test Type A, H5 and H7 or H9 is a rapid molecular amplification test for the qualitative detection of Avian Influenza Type A viruses and differentiation of H5 and H7 RNA subtypes from oropharyngeal and cloacal samples from symptomatic and asymptomatic chickens. Positive or presumptive positive test results with the Alveo Sense Poultry Avian Influenza Test should be submitted to an authorized reference laboratory for confirmatory testing.
All results are delivered directly to the user via the Alveo Mobile application, Alveo Sense, and saved to Alveo’s secure, cloud-based system.
Alveo Sense Poultry Avian Influenza test is powered by our patented Nucleic Acid Amplification Technology with everything needed for the test included in the kit. No transportation or central lab needed.
The H5, H7 and H9 assays are complemented by a general Type A assay (matrix gene) for broad Avian Influenza detection to ensure greatest coverage. Minimal cross-reactivity between H5, H7 and H9 assays.
The Alveo Sense app is supported on iPhone iOS 15 and above and Android OS 13 and above. Certain features may be limited or unavailable on devices running iOS 14 and below and Android OS 12 and below. Compatibility with other devices or OS versions is not guaranteed. Bluetooth must be enabled to pair the analyzer.
For veterinary use only.

Alveo Analyzer
The Alveo Analyzer is a standalone instrument that is capable of running Alveo Cartridges from the Alveo Test Kits. The Alveo Sense Cartridges include internal process controls to help ensure that tests are run properly and that test results are valid. Test results are displayed to the user (e.g. Positive, Negative, Invalid) on the screen of the user’s smartphone device, and are saved to the registered user’s Alveo Sense Account.
- Portable and rechargeable
- Smartphone app enabled
- Results stored on a secured, cloud-based database
System Description
The Alveo System consists of the Alveo Analyzer, Alveo Sense Test Kits (test-specific kits) and Alveo SenseTM Mobile App (software) that must be installed on a compatible* smartphone device.
Intended Use
The Alveo Analyzer is an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) instrument that accepts test-specific Alveo Sense Cartridges and executes nucleic acid amplification and detection of analytes according to assay definitions associated with the inserted Cartridge. The Alveo Analyzer is designed for use with Alveo’s Cartridges, allowing healthcare providers to run specific tests on the platform using pre-defined assays.
*Alveo Sense is supported on iPhone iOS 15 and above and Android OS 13 and above. Bluetooth must be enabled to connect

The Alveo Platform
The Alveo platform brings together three purpose-built components: a portable analyzer, single-use test cartridges, and the Alveo Sense + Vista software stack. Each handles a specific step of the workflow, from sample collection to actionable result. Explore how they work together below.
Cartridge
Each cartridge is preloaded with a QR code for secure, automated test registration and result tracking.
Analyzer
Our analyzer delivers high-sensitivity molecular results in under an hour—engineered for use at the Point of Need™.
Smartphone
The Alveo Sense™ app guides the workflow and delivers secure, real-time results to your smartphone.
Filtration Syringe
The filtration syringe enables clean, consistent sample processing for complex sample types.
Sample Collection to Results
in Less Than One Hour
A molecular testing lab in the palm of your hand. This streamlined workflow delivers actionable results in under an hour. Experience fast, reliable, Bluetooth-connected molecular testing built for on-site decision-making.

The Cost of Speed in Avian Influenza Surveillance: How Early Detection Saved a Farm and Protected a Region
When an Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza outbreak hit a European poultry farm in 2025, rapid on-site testing enabled complete containment in just 3 days with zero spread to neighboring farms and zero human infections.
Uniting Expertise to Redefine Poultry Health Diagnostics
We have joined forces with Netherlands-based Royal GD to deliver transformative solutions for farm animal health and welfare. By combining Alveo’s groundbreaking molecular testing platform with Royal GD’s unmatched veterinary expertise, this collaboration represents a powerful step forward in enabling fast, accurate, and accessible diagnostics at the point of need.
