  Join us via ZOOM for a demonstration of Sensoreal Rapid biotoxin testing equipment with Margo Reveil of Jakolof Bay Oyster Company.
  
  These field-deployable kits test for PSP, ASP, and DSP toxins on-site with results in under one hour — giving farmers better information to make harvest timing decisions and manage risk. These are not regulatory testing tools; state DEC determinations still govern commercial harvest closures. By helping growers self-select when to submit official samples, the technology has the potential to reduce unnecessary regulatory testing costs for both growers and the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation.
