Seedalive has developed a rapid seed germination test, and they aim to become the new gold standard for seed quality control worldwide within the next 4 years. Their test lasts only 4 hours instead of 14 days and saves 99% energy. The test can be performed on-site using their seedalive test kits, guided step-by-step by their multilingual seedalive APP. Seedalive is a science spin-off from the University of Osnabrück.
