Description
PURPOSE
«ALSENSE POCT» expands molecular testing beyond traditional laboratory settings, delivering reliable PCR grade results wherever they are needed. A closed, single‑use cartridge with integrated reagents enables the full analysis workflow – from sample preparation to final result – without manual operations or risk of cross‑contamination. Its compact, modular architecture supports a wide range of diagnostic applications across diverse environments:
- Infectious disease panels.
- Respiratory pathogens.
- Gastrointestinal pathogens.
- Women’s health diagnostics.
- Emergency and field testing.
- Mobile and remote laboratories.
ASSAY PRINCIPLE
The system performs fully automated magnetic‑bead nucleic acid extraction followed by real‑time PCR amplification within a closed, single‑use cartridge. All workflow steps – lysis, binding, washing, elution, and PCR – are executed on‑board without user intervention, ensuring contamination‑free processing and consistent analytical performance.
