Easy setup and fast TAT!

Application Area:

Patient testing in hospital environment.

The BioFire Filmarray products are easy to use and each kit is standardized. If you know how to set up one type you pretty much know how to set up most of them. I do wish the kits came preassembled in easy grab and go pouches with one of each reagent and such in them instead of separated in big bags. Repeated opening/closing of the bags and hands in and out increases the risk of contamination. So, packaging could be simplified and streamlined, but otherwise we are very happy with the products.

The respiratory panel 2 enables us to detect various pathogens aside from SARS-cov-2 in cases of pneumonia, to quickly identify treatable etiology / agents. After -sales service is prompt and efficient. Although it costs more, it is worth it due to rapid results enabling timely life-saving intervention by clinicians.

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Syndromic testing for respiratory patients

It helps to accelerate the workflow to get a quick answer in order to help the patient, all we need is the sample without any preparation. Takes 45 mins to get an accurate and comprehensive result. Since respiratory symptoms are often the same we need such a panel to reduce the patient length of stay and reduce the number of tests needed. Also the fast response from the Biofire team for any concerns is an advantage.

The BIOFIRE RP2.1 Panel helps clinicians quickly diagnose respiratory infections, which present with nearly indistinguishable symptoms. Respiratory infections can be caused by many viruses and bacteria—not just SARS-CoV-2 or influenza. The BIOFIRE RP2.1 Panel uses a molecular approach to accurately detect and identify the pathogens most commonly associated with respiratory infections.

  • Detects and identifies 18 viral targets, including SARS-CoV-2, and 4 bacterial targets
  • Results are available in about 45 minutes
  • Available for use on the BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® TORCH and the BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® 2.0 systems
