Medical Services International

Medical Services International Inc. was a Canadian medical technology company that specialized in the development and distribution of rapid diagnostic test kits for infectious diseases. The company's primary product line, marketed under the Viro-Check brand, included rapid tests for HIV-1 and HIV-2, as well as diagnostics for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. These products were designed for ease of use in point-of-care settings, particularly in developing nations where laboratory infrastructure is limited. Although the company was once active on the OTC markets and secured various international distribution agreements, it has since ceased significant operations and is currently considered inactive. The company was headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, and focused on global health markets. Its diagnostic kits were notable for providing results in minutes without the need for specialized laboratory equipment.
