DnaNudge is a British company specializing in DNA testing. In late 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, it introduced COVID Nudge, a rapid RT-PCR test for COVID-19. The device uses a disposable sample capsule that is placed into a sample processor box, and gives results in 90 minutes. As of August 2020, the British government had ordered 5000 of the sample processor boxes.

Sir Richard Sykes joined its board in 2021.

Origins

The company was co-founded by Chris Toumazou.
