Products

Bench-top rapid real-time PCR instrument

A compact real-time PCR instrument designed for rapid thermal cycling and fluorescence-based detection; includes instrument control computer and analysis software with automated result calling.

Spin-column nucleic acid extraction kit

Kit for extraction of total nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) from various liquid biological samples using spin-column adsorption, wash, and elution steps; outputs suitable for PCR/RT-PCR/NGS.

Multiplex real-time PCR reagent kits

Reagent kits that provide master mix, primer/probe mixes, controls and extraction reagents for multi-target real-time PCR assays; designed to allow simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens in one run.

Mail-in clinical PCR test kits (consumer kits)

Self-collection kits for mailing specimens (saliva/urine/swab) to a central laboratory for real-time PCR testing for pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2, norovirus, measles, monkeypox, and various STDs.

Automated nucleic acid extraction instrument (development)

R&D-stage fully automated instrument for rapid preparation of nucleic acids from biological samples for use in downstream molecular assays.

Multiplex PCR detection chip (development)

R&D-stage PCR chip designed to detect multiple genetic targets (development example: up to eight targets per chip) for multiplexed diagnostics.
