Genetic Signatures launches new EasyScreen™ product range at ECCMID2012

Genetic Signatures has launched a new EasyScreen™ product range at the 22nd European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases in London from 31st March to 3rd April 2012. The range includes kits for diagnosing bacterial, viral and protazoan causes of gastroenteritis direct from faeces.

Dr John Melki has presented a poster outlining the Genetic Signatures EasyScreen™ system for the diagnosis of all major GI pathogens from primary clinical samples.

The assays are simple and employ universal sample preparation conditions thereby streamlining the process of pathogen detection from faecal material. All assays have incorporated controls for sample processing and inhibition to ensure assay robustness and reliability. Assays can be run on virtually all purification and real time instruments found in major hospital and pathology laboratories. Sample to results time is less than 3 hours, allowing for rapid diagnosis facilitating optimal patient management.
