Sexually transmitted disease rapid test STI

The Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) is the broadest cartridge-based STI panel on the market. The test simultaneously detects 10 bacterial, viral and protozoan infections for a comprehensive sexual health profile. The assay is based on a combination of multiplex PCR and biochip array hybridisation. Innovative PCR priming technology permits high discrimination between multiple targets. A unique primer set is designed for each target which will hybridise to a complementary oligo-nucleotide probe spotted on a biochip discrete test region (DTR). This combination of priming and spatially organised biochip array technology enables enhanced specificity of the assay. Analysis can be completed from template DNA through PCR to data readout in ~6 hours. The array is CE marked for routine clinical use.
