Pathogen detection
Effective tools for detecting and characterizing viral and microbial pathogens are crucial for combating the global threat of novel and reemerging infectious diseases. Preventing and controlling outbreaks requires fast, accurate, and sensitive detection methods that can be rapidly deployed to monitor the spread of infectious disease, provide reliable results with a variety of sample types, and allow the processing of many samples at once. Advanced technologies are also needed to rapidly identify and characterize novel pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 in order to develop and optimize detection methods and provide data to enable and accelerate vaccine development.
Explore the pages below to discover powerful solutions for simplifying sample preparation; developing rapid, reliable, and scalable detection assays tailored to specific pathogens; and identifying and characterizing emerging and existing pathogens.
