The Global Shrimp Outlook: 2005, organized by GAA, was held in Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh City on October 24-27. President of Farming IntelliGene Tech. Corp.- Leo Liu is the sole delegate and also a GAA member to take part in this program.

This program is designed to provide the best available information for shrimp buyers and sellers on global shrimp supply, demand, and pricing forecasts. It consists of four main sectors: Production summaries and projections, Market summaries and projections, Strategic Outlook and Economic Modeling.

Facing a fast and volatile environment, it becomes evident that international markets confront subjects such as antidumping tariffs, concerns about food safety, certification, and traceability. Global aquaculture’s production increase has made disease control unavoidable. Farming IntelliGene Tech. Corp. , nevertheless, plays an important role and always seeks for a better advancement by integrating experts from practical farming industries to theoretical researchers, developing new viral detection kits and continuously maintaining the top quality of our products.

 Farming IntelliGene had reserved a booth at the annual World Aquaculture event held in Bali in May.  At the trade show we brought to the visitors the latest IQ2000^TM test kit on IMNV and Real-Time PCR based detection kit: the IQ REAL^TM virus detection series. This year we also made two presentations related to "Shrimp Bio-security and Health Management."

 Ms. Winnie Ku, our R&D vice-director, addressed participants on “High-Throughput Detection Methods for Shrimp Viral Disease.” She introduced two high-throughput diagnostic methods for shrimp viral disease, namely Bio-Chip system and quantitative Real-time PCR.  Both systems feature large processing capability, which are efficiency and accuracy and are no doubt the best tools for today’s industry.  The other talk, presented by Mr. Ping-Hua Teng, director of R&D, mainly focused on the application of an isothermal amplification approach, rolling circle amplification (RCA), for the detection of IHHNV in L.vannamei.   The five-day event was very successful and fruitful.  We would also like to take this chance to say a big thank you to those who stopped by our booth and all our friends.
