MORE Than Results

Innovative PCR diagnostic testing that delivers sample-to-answer1 results when and where you need them

 

An Innovative Approach

The cornerstone of Cepheid’s molecular diagnostic solutions is our patented, single-use Xpert® test cartridge known as the Lab in a Cartridge™.

This innovative test design includes:

  • Automated RT-PCR including sample preparation, nucleic acid amplification, and detection
  • Accuracy across the broadest menu of assays
  • Onboard controls
  • Safe and easy-to-use
  • Reduced manual steps and minimal hand-on time
  • No additional reagents required

"The introduction of rapid molecular testing for carbapenemase-producing enterobacterales allowed us to shorten the time to result to a matter of hours instead of days, identify patients quickly and take the necessary precautions quickly."
