A Hubbard company is reconfiguring a testing product to detect viruses,like Ebola, quickly.

Nanologix officials said the diagnostic test kit would cut detection time from three days to as soon as 30 minutes.

The kits have been widely used for bacterial tests, but are now being changed to detect viruses.

Bret Barnhizer, CEO of Nanologix anticipates they could be able to detect the virus before you show symptoms.

"If there's a means to detect something that they've been exposed to it early on, then that can stop someone from getting on a plane. It can cause the health authorities, where ever, that may be in Europe, Asia or Africa to isolate that person and check the people around them," said Barnhizer.

Nanologix is now seeking a corporate partner to help get the testing to the next step of analysis, which is necessary to get it cleared to go to mass market.
