VERIGENE® System

VERIGENE^® System

The VERIGENE^® System offers automated, cost-effective multiplex capabilities that rapidly and accurately detect infectious pathogens and drug resistance markers, without relying on time-consuming culture methods.

Delivery of this time-critical information enables clinicians to provide targeted patient care more quickly, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes, lower costs, optimized antibiotic therapy, reduced spread of antibiotic resistance, and most importantly, saved lives.

VERIGENE is powering faster treatment decisions in more than half of the top U.S. hospitals. VERIGENE’s ease of use makes it a valuable system for use in both hospital-based and reference laboratories.

Tests run on the VERIGENE platform are designed to target infections in the bloodstream, respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal tract.

Available Tests

Available Tests

Respiratory Testing
The VERIGENE respiratory tract infection test provides viral identification information clinicians need to select appropriate treatment for their patients, and can limit misuse and overuse of antibiotics.

VERIGENE^® Respiratory Pathogens Flex Test (RP Flex)

Gastrointestinal Testing
The VERIGENE gastrointestinal infection tests require less than five minutes of user hands-on time and deliver comprehensive results directly from a stool sample in less than two hours.

VERIGENE^® Enteric Pathogens Test (EP)

Bloodstream Infections
VERIGENE bloodstream tests provide cost-effective bacterial identification and antibiotic resistance determination directly from positive blood culture bottles up to 48 hours faster than conventional methods.

The VERIGENE^® System

VERIGENE Test Cartridges

The VERIGENE Test Cartridge is a single-use, self-contained test unit comprised of the following:

Reagent Pack—A microfluidic cassette that contains all of the hybridisation reagents needed for a single test and captures the waste materials generated during test processing.
Substrate Holder—Contains a glass slide that serves as a solid support for the microarray used to capture targeted nucleic acids.

Each Test Cartridge is designed for multiplex analyses of one patient sample.

Instrumentation

The VERIGENE System instrumentation consists of a VERIGENE Reader and one or multiple VERIGENE Processor SPs.

The VERIGENE Reader manages sample information, reads results from processed cartridges, and allows for results printing, internal data storage, and LIS connectivity without the need for an external PC.

The VERIGENE Processor SP is a modular, easy to use bench top analyser that combines automated nucleic acid extraction, purification, amplification (if required), and hybridisation in each module. These advanced capabilities allow users to run VERIGENE Tests on-demand in response to testing requirements, without the need for batch processing, specially trained personnel, or specialised facilities.

The VERIGENE System is scalable, allowing throughput customisation to meet the size and testing demands of each laboratory.
