Snapshot
Operations
Products and/or services of Genetic Signatures
- Gastrointestinal Diagnostic Kits: Real-time PCR screening assays designed for the multiplexed identification of bacterial, viral, and parasitic intestinal pathogens, enabling hospital and clinical pathology laboratories to detect multiple target organisms simultaneously within patient stool samples.
- Respiratory Diagnostic Assays: Multiplexed molecular assays engineered for routine clinical screening of viral and bacterial respiratory pathogens, including influenza, SARS-CoV-2, atypical pneumonia agents, and seasonal coronavirus strains across clinical and reference laboratory settings.
- Base-Conversion Nucleic Acid Technology: Proprietary molecular processing method that chemically modifies genomic DNA and RNA targets to simplify sequence complexity, enhancing target binding efficiency and improving broad-spectrum pathogen detection capabilities across clinical screening applications.
- Sexual Health and Antimicrobial Resistance Panels: Multiplex real-time PCR screening assays designed for the rapid detection of sexually transmitted infections, reproductive health pathogens, and critical antimicrobial resistance markers, including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and carbapenemase-producing bacterial organisms in clinical specimens.
- Automated Sample Extraction and Workflow Systems: Specialized nucleic acid extraction reagents and automated sample preparation instruments designed to streamline clinical laboratory workflows, minimize hands-on operator time, and optimize high-throughput processing for downstream molecular diagnostic testing.
- Meningitis and Vector-Borne Pathogen Assays: Specialist diagnostic multiplex PCR panels designed for the rapid identification of viral, bacterial, and fungal central nervous system pathogens, alongside vector-borne tropical disease agents including flaviviruses and alphaviruses in clinical diagnostic environments.
