The hi-tech lab, which is designed in a Kamaz van, can detect 78 kinds of virus and define factors causing most dangerous diseases such as plague, smallpox, and Ebola.
It is scheduled to be transported to Vietnam in late November this year on the 30th founding anniversary of the Vietnam-Russia Tropical Centre.
According to Rospotrebnadzor, the lab will help supervise natural epidemic hotbeds in Vietnam as it meets requirements in biological safety by using advanced monitoring and detection technologies.
Currently, Vietnamese and Russian experts at the Vietnam-Russia Tropical Centre are working together to prevent infectious diseases, contributing to ensuring food safety, while implementing scientific researches in epidemiology, parasitology, and many other areas.
In 2014, a similar lab was successfully put into operation in Guinea, allowing the conduct of a series of researches amidst extreme weather in remote areas of the country.-VNA
