Applications
SenseUP’s patented development platform unlocks targeted dsRNA products that protect plant and animal agriculture
Alongside partners, we are developing and testing products for numerous applications
Crop applications
Crop protection
- Bio-fungicides
- Bio-insecticides/nematicides
- Bio-viricides
These products harness the natural process of RNA interference: Targeted dsRNA actives disrupt an insect, fungus or virus’s internal functions.
This process is specific to the targeted pest, disease or virus, making them eco-friendly.
Our products will be applied as a spray, soil or seed solution.
Animal feed applications
Poultry Eimeria parasiticide
Preventing coccidiosis disease in poultry
Our parasiticides draw on RNA interference to target poultry parasites, including the coccidiosis-causing Eimeria species that have developed resistance to traditional drugs.
Delivered as an additive in poultry feed, the dsRNA actives are absorbed in the gut to disrupt targeted parasites before they cause disease in poultry populations.
Aquaculture therapeutics
Protecting against viral aquatic diseases
dsRNA viricides for aquaculture present a safe, chemical-free and effective solution to the unsolved challenge of viral diseases for species like shrimp.
Applied as an additive to feed powder, these encapsulated actives consumed by farmed shrimp help them disrupt the targeted viral vectors, avoiding costly outbreaks of disease.
