Collect - Detect - Deliver

Streamline your workflow from patient collection to results with your long-term partner in SARS-CoV-2 testing and beyond.

Simplified Workflow

Direct Load Collection Devices

  • Load directly onto the Panther® system, eliminating manual specimen transfer steps and reducing costs for additional consumables.
  • Tubes with penetrable caps add additional barrier to prevent contamination and eliminate uncapping and recapping of tubes.

  • Non-hazardous lysis buffer inactivates common respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, minimizing biosafety needs.

  • Simplified workflow reduces human error and repetitive motion injuries.

Superior Sensitivity1

Aptima® SARS-CoV-2 Assay*

  • Significant investments made to expand reagent and consumable supply capacity to meet customer demand.
  • Use a trusted leader in molecular diagnostic testing to detect SARS-CoV-2.
  • Proven best-in-class analytical sensitivity allows for use in asymptomatic screening and pooling workflows.
  • Wide range of specimen types to meet symptomatic testing and asymptomatic screening applications.
  • Robust design provides comprehensive coverage for circulating SARS-CoV-2 strains.

Scalable Automation

Panther System

  • Expedite turnaround time using random and continuous access to load specimens for SARS-CoV-2 alongside current testing.
  • Meet testing demands and reimbursement requirements with a high-throughput instrument that can run up to 1,000 tests per day.
  • Run more tests per square foot with a fully-automated instrument with a small footprint.
  • Plan for the future and grow at your own pace with options to scale up with Panther Scalable Solutions.

Direct Load Tube is Safer, Faster, Cheaper

“The integrated approach of Hologic utilizing a collection device that can be directly loaded onto Panther has led to faster throughput, safer handling of specimens and its automated nature led to lower overhead costs and decreased technologist turnover.”
Aron Banks, Managing Member CardioPath, Miami, FL

True Menu Consolidation

“The Panther is our molecular workhorse. Today we run 14 different molecular assays on the Panther system including SARS-CoV-2, allowing us to consolidate our core testing and maintain critical turnaround times without adding more staff.”
Robert Boorstein, MD, PhD, Medical Director Lenco Diagnostic Laboratory, New York, NY

Exceptional Level of Quality

“The Hologic Panther system has truly been essential to ensuring that my laboratory maintained an exceptional level of quality even during a global pandemic. While the laboratory staff appreciate its limited hands-on time, high throughput and intuitive software, its ability to maintain my existing menu items while adding SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza have allowed for essential menu expansion and unification without additional capital expenditure.”
Director, Molecular Pathology Testing Hospital, Bronx, NY

Labor Savings with Direct Load Tube

“My lab runs several different platforms for SARS-CoV-2 testing. Hologic is the only supplier that has a collection device that can be loaded directly on to their system without manual uncapping or transferring of samples to a secondary tube, saving us approximately 2 to 3 hours of labor a day.”
Anami Patel, Ph.D MB (ASCP)CM DLMCM, Chief Science Officer Poplar Healthcare, Memphis TN
