Recently, a Pune-based startup, Mylab Discovery Solutions, started working on various innovative solutions. Last year the company launched the ‘Mylab PathoDetect COVID-19 Qualitative PCR kit.’ It became the first kit to receive approval from Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation. The startup received approval for the commercial production of the testing kit in March 2020. Since then, the startup has partnered with AP Globale Chairman Abhijit Pawar and Serum India CEO Adar Poonawalla to increase the production of the kit.
