Products
OnSight - Vitamin D Quantitative Test
Rapid quantitative lateral-flow assay for total 25‑OH vitamin D in finger‑prick whole blood or serum. Reported features: 10 µL finger‑prick sample, ~15 minute result, detects D2 and D3, detection range 3–100 ng/mL, calibrated against LC‑MS/MS (reported R² = 0.96), reported accuracy 98% and specificity 100%, no interference with high biotin, includes controls for QC.
OnSight - Ferritin Quantitative Test
Rapid quantitative lateral-flow assay for ferritin from finger‑prick blood (20 µL) or serum (10 µL). Reported features: ~15 minute result, sensitivity 3.0 ng/mL, specificity 100%, detection range 3.0–450 ng/mL, traceability to WHO international ferritin standard (NIBSC code: 94/572), includes controls for QC and intended for immediate consultation.
Cube Reader QuickREAD
Small form-factor rapid lateral-flow reader adaptable to standard lateral-flow assays. Stated attributes include 3-second read time, CV <1%, RFID-based lot calibration, no maintenance, simple QC, data transfer to a computer via a dedicated cable, and compact size/weight.
