The assay allows rapid and accurate detection of microorganisms that cause serious threats to human health, food, water and other resources.
The Plex-ID Biothreat assay analyses direct specimens, such as blood, water, food and air filter samples, and provides results in less than eight hours.
The system will detect and identify bacterial and viral biothreat agents while also differentiating similar organisms, which saves time while providing critical information without the need to grow the agent in culture first.
