Rapid nucleic analysis
Company Profile:
Abacus Diagnostica Oy, established in 2004, is focusing on the development of novel,
rapid and simple solutions for DNA testing. Our proprietary GenomEra™ platform is a
powerful tool for routine DNA based testing, allowing a totally new approach with no need for dedicated laboratory facilities or special trained personnel.
The GenomEra™ platform combines a rapid assay principle employing Time Resolved
Fluorescence detection with a simple-to-use reagent concept, which together with the
automated analyzer including a built-in thermal cycler takes DNA-testing to a new level of
convenience and simplicity without compromising high performance, quality of results and reliability. The first product is the GenomEra CDX™ system, intended for clinical
laboratory use for rapid detection of infectious diseases. First test kits will be made
available for MRSA, followed by an STD-panel for Chlamydia Trachomatis and Neisseria Gonorrhoeae.
