Bosch Healthcare Solutions (Waiblingen, Germany) is demonstrating the Vivalytic Analyzer, the all-in-one solution for PCR rapid tests, at MEDICA 2022.
Vivalytic is a universal platform for molecular diagnostics, which enables various laboratory tests to be performed swiftly and in a fully automated manner. The platform unites a wide spectrum of tests with a varying number of clinically relevant parameters on one device. The Vivalytic Analyzer enables fully automated PCR testing in laboratory quality – fast and directly at the point of care. The system consists of just a compact analysis device and cartridges the size of a smartphone. This enables rapid PCR tests to be carried out directly on site.
The Vivalytic Analyzer unites a wide variety of innovative technologies in one compact device. With only a touch display, a slot for inserting the test cartridge, a button and a scanner, the system is very intuitive to use. Its minimalistic design makes the Vivalytic system very user-friendly: medical professionals require only minimal training to be able to safely operate the Analyzer. Different types of samples can be tested fully automated with the Vivalytic Analyzer and its innovative technology reduces the need for manual preparation. The Analyzer takes over this task before the analysis and evaluation takes place. With its compact dimensions, the Vivalytic Analyzer can be used anywhere – be it in the laboratory, on the hospital ward or directly at the point of care.
