About us

Who are we?

At MeLCo-MED, we are a passionate team of animal enthusiasts and dedicated professionals driven by a single mission: to transform veterinary diagnostics. Inspired daily by our own pets, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of accessibility in animal care.

With years of experience in infectious disease diagnostics, our background as former R&D scientists gives us deep expertise. We understand the complexities behind diagnostic tools and have dedicated ourselves to developing cutting-edge solutions that deliver the accuracy and reliability needed to truly make a difference.

A concern we frequently hear is that veterinary rapid tests are often viewed as unreliable, leading to compromised care. As both scientists and pet owners, we refuse to accept this status quo. That’s why we are committed to offering only the highest-quality diagnostic tests—providing veterinarians and pet owners with fast, affordable, and dependable results that ensure animals get the care they deserve.

Our vision is simple: fast, accurate, and accessible diagnostics that empower better decision-making. Every product we offer is thoroughly validated for sensitivity, specificity, reproducibility, and stability, making our rapid tests some of the most trusted in the industry.

Developed in state-of-the-art veterinary GMP facilities and biosafety level-II laboratories, all our products adhere to rigorous quality standards, including ISO9001, ISO14001, and ISO45001 certifications. From raw materials to finished products, each batch is thoroughly inspected to ensure the highest level of quality and consistency.

We believe in continuous improvement, and we actively seek out feedback from our customers. Your insights help shape the future of our diagnostics, and we are dedicated to meeting and exceeding your expectations. Together, we can achieve better outcomes for the animals we all care about.

At MeLCo-MED, we believe that every animal deserves the best possible care—and that starts with the right and timely diagnosis.

Canine leishmaniasis

Simba, our beloved 15-year-old dog, is a testament to the power of timely and accurate diagnostics. When he was just 4 years old, he was diagnosed with canine leishmaniasis, which is caused by the Leishmania parasite. If left untreated or diagnosed too late, it can cause organ failure (especially kidney failure) and other life-threatening complications, making it often a fatal disease. Simba was able to receive the treatment he needed thanks to early detection. Simba’s longevity highlights the crucial role that precise, reliable diagnostics play in managing such conditions, allowing pets to live longer, healthier lives despite the challenges of chronic diseases.

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus & Feline Infectious Peritonitis

Mario, our resilient 8-year-old cat, is living proof of the importance of early diagnosis in managing serious feline diseases. Diagnosed with both Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline coronavirus (FCoV), the precursor to Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), Mario faced two significant health challenges. FIV, a virus that weakens a cat’s immune system over time, makes them more vulnerable to infections, while FIP, caused by a mutation of the FCoV, is often fatal if untreated. Thanks to early detection and vigilant care, Mario has surpassed expectations and continues to lead a healthy and happy life. His journey underscores how timely, accurate diagnostics can dramatically improve the outlook for even the most serious feline diseases.
