One in five people in the western world are avoiding gluten for health reasons. Unfortunately, that can sometimes mean their diets become inferior in nutrition and taste. Kebari is providing the food and beverage industry with palatable and healthy gluten-free products to produce healthy and tasty options for people who are coeliac or gluten intolerant. The first commercially-produced product made with Kebari? barley, a world-first grain, is gluten-free beer. Kebari has been supported by the ON Accelerate program at CSIRO. http://www.oninnovation.com.au/en/ON-teams/ON-Tribe/Accelerate1/Kebari

RxAll, a Nigerian startup, has developed a portable drug authenticator that determines the authenticity of medications. It is a potentially powerful tool in the fight against the counterfeit drug market which is a multibillion-dollar industry that puts lives at risk. RxAll allows anyone to test the quality of a drug by using a portable nanoscanner and mobile app.?The proprietary machine learning algorithm reads the scan from the scanner, identifies the drug, assesses its quality and lets the user know whether the drug is real or counterfeit, in about 20 seconds. www.rxall.net
