Another note worthy bit.... results in 90min...amazing.
David Budd, Chief Executive Officer of genedrive plc, said: "We are delighted to have reached this important milestone in the evolution of our company and in our efforts to tackle the real problem of undiagnosed HCV infection in low and middle income countries. The WHO PQ process itself was very rigorous and we are pleased to have our HCV products validated through their independent audit and laboratory testing processes. WHO PQ will support the commercial processes of our distribution partners in many countries and evidences genedrive's product development and vigilance processes to this important agency."
The Genedrive(R) HCV-ID kit allows for decentralised molecular testing of HCV by PCR, providing results within 90 minutes direct from a small plasma sample (25ul). This allows for testing to be done outside of a large hospital facility and indeed while a patient may be waiting for a result. The assay is performed on the Genedrive(R) platform, the only truly portable molecular diagnostics system designed for diagnosing HCV at the point of need.
