available. Using this information in a timelier manner has been shown to impact clinical decision making, improve patient outcomes and lower treatment costs. To make molecular testing available to more patients, the company has developed the GeneSTAT® System™ as its first instrument system. This novel, patented and highly portable instrument is combined with a proprietary test cartridge to provide easy to use, rapid and affordable Real-Time PCR molecular testing capabilities that are ideal for low to moderate throughput locations. Examples of target markets for the GeneSTAT System include small to mid-sized community hospitals, clinics, and rural healthcare facilities where high cost & high volume instruments requiring specially trained laboratory technicians are not viable.
