PRIME MDx

PRIME MDx is the brand new A.Menarini Diagnostics system designed to streamline laboratory workflows for real-time PCR diagnostic assays with efficiency, flexibility, and ease of use
All-in-one, sample-to-result, fully automated true walk-away solution 

MAXIMIZED EFFICIENCY. IMPROVED STANDARDIZATION
  • Minimized manual intervention thanks to automation and guided instrument setup
  • Full sample traceability
  • Automatic result generation and interpretation through dedicated software ensure high-quality results with workflow standardization and improved lab efficiency
ENHANCED FLEXIBILITY. INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY
  • Universal sample processing
  • Run up to 5 different assays from one sample
  • Up to 240 samples per day
  • Continuous workflow enables you to start a new loading process (extraction/setup) while the previous PCR is stil running
  • Flexibility to manage your run with several extraction reagent formats (prefilled or standard)
SEAMLESS IT INTEGRATION AND CONNECTIVITY
  • PRIME MDx connects easily to your existing IT infrastructure
  • Archived data can be accessed at any time, from anywhere
