Hi, nice find. i have looked on find a tender, as said on bidstats, here is thé link :

Www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/001410-2021?origin=SearchResults&p=1

Sadly, it dates from : 13 March 2020.
So no link with our last dhsc contract.
But it shows us some tender awards Can appear almost one year later !

I think you've all Seen this, but worth remembering imo,

Helen xinwei chen, a clinical laboratory Technician at primerdesign working At qmul had posted this on linkdln :
"We are looking for confirmed positive volunteers, on behalf of the NHS, who would be willing to self-swab themselves over the Christmas period."

In the document joined and signed by Doctor Jo Martin :
"Doubble swabbing just in the front of each nostril"
"to prove that the New covid tests works well"

Was this related to the NPT study that began in July, (looks like front noze sampling validation), or could they be trialing all their New products there ? The LFT, the rt-lamp, VariPLEX, PROmate etc...
It would bé a great place to test all their New products, and also validate Them in clinical settings.
Now they got foots into qmul and permanent jobs there, thats my opinion.

A kit for those things costs 480,700 or 900, depending wich test it is. At a distributor.

So only around 60.000€
And that's distributor Price.

So not much, but Always a little more, and all over the globe...

Hello, if you look At the specificity document of the Genesig covid assay, you see :

"Z-Path-2019-nCoV-EASY (RUO)
Z-Path-2019-nCoV-std (RUO)
Z-COVID-19 (US ONLY)
Z-Path-COVID-19-HT-CE (CE IVD)
Z-exsig™ COVID-19 direct (CE IVD)"

why a distinction, can't tell, maybe something to do with laws/regulations, but the product number isnt the same as for the rest of the world, even if it's the same assay

Good morning everybody,

I have sadly to correct you, because France will use LFTs in schools.
Pcr are for people coming from outside of EU, inclunding UK.
Schools -> LFT

You Can find article saying it if you write : écoles + tests antigéniques on Google.

Yes exactly, thank you.
In this part :
3. Amplification and Detection
Primerdesign Can be used with the qTower, instrument wich seems to be in this NHS lab, as the photo is showing.

Thank you all,
The link was from analytik Jena website, telling Primerdesigns test works with the qTower. Just type primerdesign and analytik Jena on Google and youll find it

Hello, Larry from twitter here. Been Reading you a lot, but now needed an account to read further. As im here, if i may add,

See the qTower by analiktik Jena on the picture from the NHS lab ?

Not New, but primerdesign is confirmed to work with the qTower on their website, but its not the only one. Maybe a further link though...
