Small benchtop fluorescent immunoassay analyzer
Sofia 2 uses fluorescent technology to deliver automated, objective, and accurate test results in three to 15 minutes. Sofia 2 is a small benchtop fluorescent immunoassay analyzer with flexible workflows to accommodate any laboratory environment and testing volume. Results store automatically on Sofia 2 and can optionally be exported, printed, sent directly to your LIS, or viewed remotely with Quidel’s secure, HIPAA-compliant Virena data management system. The Sofia 2 menu of CLIA-waived assays includes Sofia Influenza A+B FIA, Sofia RSV FIA, Sofia Strep A+ FIA, and Sofia 2 Lyme FIA. Quidel
Influenza A & B 2 assay
ID NOW, a CLIA-waived point-of-care molecular platform, is a rapid, instrument-based, isothermal system for the qualitative detection of infectious diseases. The Influenza A & B 2 assay on the ID NOW platform delivers point-of-care molecular detection and differentiation of influenza A and B virus in 13 minutes or less, with early call out of positive results in as little as five minutes. The Strep A 2 assay provides molecular detection of Group A Streptococcus bacterial nucleic acid—in six minutes or less, positive results displayed as early as two minutes—with no culture confirmation required for negative results.
