Genedrive® HCV ID Kit is a qualitative HCV assay, providing results within 90 minutes and is designed for use in a decentralised testing environment. It is performed on the company’s portable molecular diagnostics platform, Genedrive®, and was created to support the roll-out of direct-acting antivirals in low and middle income countries.
genedrive recently announced first commercial sales of instruments and assays to Sysmex Europe GmbH to cover Europe, Middle East and Africa and Sysmex Asia Pacific Pte Ltd for the Asia Pacific region, excluding India. In addition, the Genedrive® HCV ID Kit’s first external validation study was successfully conducted in South Africa with results announced in early January 2018 showing 100% specificity and sensitivity in independent use, confirming that our good clinical validation performance can be translated into real-world settings.
MEDLAB is a significant and highly attended event in the Asia Pacific region for leading companies to showcase their technologies and innovations in the field of laboratory diagnostics. With over 4,000 delegates from around the world, the congress features products in many areas including point of need and infectious diseases.
The Genedrive® HCV-ID Kit will be presented and demonstrated together with Sysmex Asia Pacific at booth M19 at the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre.
