In this paper, we present the concept of a novel diagnostic device for on-site analyses, based on the use of advanced bio-sensing and photonics technologies to tackle emerging and endemic viruses causing swine epidemics and significant economic damage in farms. The device is currently under development in the framework of the EU Commission co-funded project. The overall concept behind the project is to develop a method for an early and fast on field detection of selected swine viruses by non-specialized personnel. The technology is able to detect pathogens in different types of biological samples, such as oral fluids, faeces, blood or nasal swabs. The device will allow for an immediate on-site threat assessment. In this work, we present the overall concept of the device, its architecture with the technical requirements, and all the used innovative technologies that contribute to the advancements of the current state of the art.
在本文中，我们提出了一种新颖的诊断设备的概念，该设备基于先进的生物传感和光子学技术，用于解决新兴的和地方性的病毒，这些病毒会导致猪群爆发疫病，并给农场造成重大的经济损失。该设备目前正在欧盟委员会共同资助的项目框架内进行开发。该项目背后的总体概念是开发一种由非专业人员在现场快速早期检测选定猪病毒的方法。该技术能够检测不同类型的生物样本中的病原体，如口腔液、粪便、血液或鼻腔拭子。该设备将能够立即进行现场威胁评估。在这项工作中，我们提出了设备的总体概念、其架构和技术要求，以及所有用于提高当前技术水平的创新技术。
