Science & Technology
AdvanDx develops simple and easy-to-use diagnostic tests based on molecular technology platforms that utilize genomic information to identify specific gene or phylogenetic (species specific) sequences in bacteria and yeast. The technology ensures quick assay turn-around time with high sensitivities and specificities.
PNA FISH™
PNA FISH™ uses fluorescent-labeled peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes in a highly sensitive and specific 2.5 hours fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay targeting the species-specific ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in microbes. The technology allows for rapid and accurate identification of bacteria and yeast directly from positive blood cultures. |
EVIGENE™
EVIGENE™ is a sandwich hybridization assay that uses nucleic acid probes to target specific gene sequences within microbial DNA. The technology allows for rapid identification of specific antibiotic resistance, virulence and toxicity gene markers in microbes. |
