Products
Meningitis/encephalitis multiplex PCR panel (CSF)
Multiplex PCR assay for simultaneous detection of multiple bacterial, viral and fungal pathogens in cerebrospinal fluid; designed for rapid identification to support early treatment.
Sepsis blood-culture identification and resistance panel
Molecular panel for pathogen identification and detection of multiple antibiotic-resistance genes from positive blood-culture bottles; designed for rapid reporting to assist sepsis management.
Pneumonia multiplex molecular panel
Automated multiplex PCR panel for detection of typical and atypical bacterial pathogens, viral respiratory agents and several antimicrobial-resistance markers from respiratory specimens.
Respiratory pathogen multiplex panels (small and extended)
Multiplex molecular panels for respiratory pathogens available in limited rapid formats and extended comprehensive formats (up to 24 targets), intended to detect viral and bacterial respiratory agents from a single sample.
Dengue diagnostics (NS1 antigen and IgM/IgG serology)
NS1 antigen rapid assay and IgM/IgG serological testing for dengue with result timing dependent on day of symptom onset and local cutoff times for same-day reporting.
Karyotype services with expanded cell-count options
G-banding karyotype testing with options for expanded analyses (50-cell, 100-cell) for increased detection sensitivity for mosaicism and chromosomal instability across fetal, blood and bone marrow samples.

Services
Multiplex PCR panel for rapid detection of common bacterial, viral and fungal pathogens in cerebrospinal fluid with high sensitivity and specificity and rapid turnaround to support early therapeutic decisions.
Molecular panel for identification of bloodstream pathogens and multiple resistance genes from positive blood-culture bottles with results available in approximately 2 hours after sample arrival in molecular workflow.
Automated multiplex molecular assay for detection of bacterial and viral causes of pneumonia and key resistance markers from respiratory specimens (bronchoalveolar lavage, aspirate, sputum).
Multiplex respiratory pathogen panels available in small rapid formats (e.g., limited viral targets with ~2 hour turnaround) and extended comprehensive formats (up to 24 targets with longer turnaround), for detection of common respiratory pathogens from a single sample.
qPCR-based diagnostic and quantitative testing for CMV to support diagnosis, monitoring and clinical decision-making, with multi-day reporting timelines indicated.
Quantitative procalcitonin testing using fluorescence-based immunodetection to assist in bacterial infection evaluation and antibiotic stewardship.
