KOA makes on-site disease monitoring possible and affordable for all type of fish farmers. Our whole service provides daily measures of the most relevant bacterial pathogens, giving crucial information to anticipate potential disease outbreaks.

Our solution is based on an innovative hybrid technology that combines living organisms which can detect pathogens of interest, and a micro-electronic interface to transform the signals in an online platform. This information is thresholded to send early-warning alerts when a certain pathogen is exceeding its relative abundance.
