Alere is exhibiting at the 2015 AACC Annual Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo in Atlanta, Georgia on July 26-30 (booth #4945). Alere will feature the Alere™ i Molecular Platform and the epoc® Blood Analysis System in the AACC New Product Showcase. Alere™ i is a rapid, instrument-based, isothermal system for the qualitative detection of infectious diseases. Their unique Alere™ i isothermal nucleic acid amplification technology provides molecular results in just minutes, allowing you to make effective clinical decisions sooner. The Alere™ i Influenza assay was the first ever molecular point of care assay to be granted CLIA waiver. The Alere™ i Strep A is now CLIA waived.

The epoc® Blood Analysis System produces blood gases and electrolytes in about 30 seconds, and is the only wireless bedside testing solution to use “SmartCard” technology. The epoc® BGEM Test Card has 11 analytes on one card, including Creatinine with eGFR and Chloride.

Visitors to the Alere booth #4945 will be able to view other leading diagnostic platforms and tests. They can also meet with the Alere Scientific Affairs team to answer IQCP questions and receive resources for developing IQCP risk assessments and quality control plans for Alere test systems.
