Dalrada Health and Vivera Pharmaceuticals have formed Pala Diagnostics, a new diagnostic laboratory joint venture that will provide mobile concierge laboratory services across the U.S.
The CLIA-certified lab will provide full onsite COVID-19 testing services for high-volume settings such as businesses, conventions, the hospitality industry, and schools. The initial focus will be on rapid antigen testing and lab-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing for COVID-19, with PCR test results provided within 24 hours, the companies said.
