Research Achievement

Hai Kang Life Corporation Limited has strong scientific research strength. It has published many scientific articles and papers in the world's leading scientific journals: New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet, Nature Biotechnology and Science. We have successfully attracted many international organizations (such as WHO) to share our knowledge and experience to the world.

Nature

HKLife expands the avian influenza rapid testing system to testing platform and applies it to the detection of other diseases such as the early tests of swine fever, foot-and-mouth disease, Newcastle disease, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus. At the same time, HKLife provides the strong weapons for the early diagnosis of these diseases. This technology platform strongly enhances the vulnerable spots in plague prevention, which causes the high attention of international society and academic world. Many academic publications like Nature etc. have conducted the exclusive interview on it.

HKLife was invited to participate in diagnosis seminar held by international organizations ：

In February of 2007, HKLife attended the ”People’s Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1) Diagnosis Seminar” co-held by WHO, ISIRV and FIND as representative under invitation—sharing avian influenza diagnosis experience. This conference was held in WHO’s headquarter in Geneva from Feb.19th, 2007 to Feb 20th, 2007.
