Respiratory Infection Test Kit

The new Viral Respiratory Infection Array (VRI) will be implemented on Vivalytic, a point-of-care platform that was introduced to the market by Bosch and Randox Laboratories. The Vivalytic system is a cartridge-based platform that is fully automated and capable of conducting both Hi-Plex and Lo-Plex testing. The VRI test is capable of identifying SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) and distinguishing it from nine other respiratory infections that exhibit comparable symptoms, such as influenza and all known coronaviruses.input:
output:Vivalytic cartridges are technologically advanced, compact Molecular Diagnostic tests that utilize microfluidics to facilitate simple and accurate diagnostic testing. Vivalytic is powered by Randox’s patented Biochip Array Technology, which facilitates end-point qualitative PCR and generates multiple test results for each sample.input:

Vivalytic Workflow

The analyzer’s user-friendliness is guaranteed by the intuitive engineering of Vivalytic. The workflow from patient sample to result is straightforward and consists of four consecutive steps.input:
output:The user initiates the test by scanning or inputting sample information. The embedded Vivalytic software then scans the cartridge code. The user then inserts the cartridge into the Vivalytic, closes the lid, and adds the sample to the dedicated cartridge slot.
