Key Technical Features

Broad Coverage for GI Pathogens
Detects a wide range of bacteria, viruses, and parasites — including norovirus and C. difficile — enabling fast and accurate diagnosis of infectious gastrointestinal illness, even in outbreak scenarios.

24-Hour PCR Turnaround
Provides results within one day, supporting timely isolation, targeted treatment, and effective infection control, crucial for protecting vulnerable populations in nursing homes or congregate settings.

Precision Diagnosis, Smarter Treatment
Accurately identifies the pathogen to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use, support faster recoveries, and help prevent antibiotic resistance — all while reducing complications and avoiding hospital transfers.

Simple, Efficient Sample Collection
Uses an easy-to-collect stool swab, minimizing discomfort for residents and streamlining workflows for providers by reducing time spent on specimen handling.
