GeneXpert - a true point-of-care solution

Cepheid’s GeneXpert systems and Xpert tests automate highly complex and time-consuming manual procedures, providing a better way for institutions of any size to perform world-class PCR testing.

Cepheid’s broad test portfolio spans respiratory infections, blood virology, women’s and sexual health, tuberculosis and emerging infectious diseases, healthcare-associated infectious diseases, oncology and human genetics.

The GeneXpert system is a sample-to-answer PCR diagnostic test operating in over 180 countries. It is the first easy-to-use, random-access system developed to enable tests to run ‘on-demand’ instead of in large batches. The instrument is a real-time PCR-based molecular diagnostic testing platform integrating a computer, barcode scanner, and preloaded software. Self-contained, single-use test cartridges perform automated nucleic acid extraction, PCR amplification, and detection of target sequences when loaded onto the instrument.
