Gene Expert: The world’s only fully-integrated real-time PCR system.
Cepheid is bringing fast, accurate and simplified molecular testing to the front lines of healthcare — giving laboratorians, doctors, nurses, public health officials, researchers, and first responders the immediate answers they need to improve life for us all.
Cepheid’s GeneXpert® System represents a major paradigm shift in the accessibility and utility of molecular diagnostics. Until now, slow, labor-intensive methods have confined molecular testing to large and xpensive specialty laboratories run by highly trained technologists. And, traditional batch testing protocols have limited the timely availability of important test results to clinicians.
The GeneXpert System delivers actionable results on-demand, when they matter most. The system requires no specialized skills to operate, enabling true on-demand testing 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each of up to 16 sites are operated independently, so samples can be processed immediately, delivering rapid, actionable test results that will enable health care professionals, first responders, homeland security officials and public health officers to make the most informed decisions possible.
With a level of performance that may be greater than any other real-time PCR system, the GeneXpert can be used to detect any genetic element in the genome—including DNA, RNA, chromosomal translocations, gene amplification and suppression. Its reliability and ease-of-use has been extensively validated by a U.S. government interagency working group and by third-party University and private research labs.
