How a drop of saliva becomes a reading
Enzymes find the marker. Electrodes measure the reaction. The BioReader turns it into a number.
01
Saliva fills the well
02
An enzyme reacts with one marker
03
Electrons flow into the electrode
04
The BioReader measures the current
05
The Pronova App shows the reading
Inside one well
A tiny printed circuit under every drop

The signal
More marker, more current
Current over a run
Current to concentration
Two channels
Your dog's sample, with a control alongside
The reading comes from your dog's saliva only. The control is a separate, known concentration used to validate the run.
