OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA — April 13, 2026 – SensTek Diagnostics, a pioneer distributed diagnostic infrastructure company, and CSP Labs, a leading accredited global leader in seed and plant health, today announced a strategic partnership under a licensing agreement aimed at deploying SensTek's cutting-edge LAMP-based RNA/DNA testing for critical agricultural pathogens and plant genetic characteristics. This collaboration promises to transform on-site pathogen detection for seed companies, farmers and the agricultural industry, significantly reducing crop losses and enhancing food safety.

Manny Singh, CEO, SensTek Diagnostics:

"This partnership with CSP Labs brings together SensTek's MS2™ platform, sBASE™ assay onboarding and validation, and integrated analytics to deliver fast, lab-quality pathogen testing directly where decisions are made," said Manny Singh, CEO of SensTek Diagnostics. "Through a white-label deployment model, CSP Labs can offer branded, field-deployable testing to seed companies and growers, while using sBASE™ to onboard and validate a large and expanding menu of assays that can be rapidly deployed on MS2™. This enables earlier detection, faster intervention, and stronger protection for crop health and the global food supply."

Currently, agricultural pathogen detection often involves expensive lab equipment, lengthy turnaround times, and complex procedures, leading to delayed responses and significant economic losses for growers. SensTek's proprietary solid-state electrochemical sensor technology, integrated into its MS2™ device, addresses these challenges by providing lab-grade results in minutes, directly on-site.

Shan Randhawa, CEO, CSP Labs:

"As an accredited global leader in seed and plant health, CSP Labs is continuously seeking innovative solutions to support the industry," stated Shan Randhawa, CEO. "SensTek's rapid, multiplexing diagnostic platform aligns perfectly with our commitment to quality and innovation. This partnership will demonstrate how on-site molecular testing can empower growers with immediate, actionable insights, enabling proactive disease management."

This collaboration is set to redefine how the agricultural industry approaches disease management, ensuring healthier plants and a more sustainable future for global food production.
