Panther Fusion® System

Flexibility, capacity and expanded menu plus the ability to run laboratory developed tests

Add on the power to run real-time PCR, TMA and RT-TMA assays on a single, fully automated platform. With the Panther Fusion® module you can consolidate testing, increase walkaway time and enhance flexibility.

  Labour savings

• Up to 32 assay reagent kits on board, which allow assay consolidation on a single platform

• Ready-to-use reagent cartridges reduce manual preparation and operator errors

• Sample throughput up to 500 tests in 8 hours increases test volume in a shift without increasing staff

• Minimal hardware/software changes allow additional testing without extensive retraining or SOP updates

  Time savings

• Open Access™ functionality provides full automation to run laboratory developed tests with IVDs

• Time-to-first result at 2.4 hours allows patient results to be released sooner and improves turnaround time

• Add on additional IVD menu without disrupting existing workflow

  Cost savings

• Run up to 5 PCR reactions from a single (360μL) patient extraction, reducing extraction time and costs

• 60-day onboard stability of reagents and fluids minimises reagent waste for better cost management

• Utilise existing Panther® system LIS connection for Panther Fusion® assays, reducing LIS costs

• In-lab upgrade increases test volumes, throughput and menu without replacing equipment or infrastructure

Consolidate your assay menu

The Aptima® and Panther Fusion assays help guide patient care and enable early detection. With a menu and pipeline of world-class assays you can consolidate your molecular testing today and meet your lab’s growing needs tomorrow.
