This solution is composed of "Maverick qPCR Instrument + One-Step Freeze-dried Detection Reagent". It has the advantages of "fast detection speed, convenient operation and reliable performance", etc.
It can be widely used in: pathogen detection of infectious diseases (novel coronavirus, viral hepatitis, HIV, gonorrhea, syphilis, measles, tuberculosis, malaria, etc.), tumor gene detection, blood screening, genetic disease gene detection.
This solution is especially suitable for scenarios with small and medium-sized detection requirements and rapid application.
Introduction to the Advantages
Solution | Commercially Available Products | |
Detection Speed | The detection time is 35 to 45 minutes, and the nucleic acid lysis and PCR detection are completed at one time. | Generally, the two-step experimental method of "nucleic acid purification and extraction + PCR" is used, which is complicated to operate and takes a long time. |
Daily Detection Volume | One instrument can detect 16 samples at a time, and it can detect 288 samples in 12 hours a day. This is a "high efficiency and cost effective" solution for small to medium sized testing sites. | In small and medium-sized testing sites, if a 96-well instrument is used, it generally takes time to wait for the accumulation of samples, or a certain amount of capacity is wasted due to insufficient testing volume each time. |
Operation Mode | Using one-step amplification technology, only one operation of reagent pipetting and sample liquid insertion is required, and the rest is automatically performed by the instrument, which reduces the technical requirements for testing personnel and reduces the risk of cross-infection. | For the method of "nucleic acid purification and extraction + PCR", the operation is complicated, and the multiple pipetting operations are prone to contamination, requiring PCR laboratories in 3 separate rooms. |
Convenience | Adopt a large 10-inch touch screen, humanized design, friendly operation, easy to use. | Generally, the instrument needs to be equipped with an external PC to connect the instrument. |
Accuracy | 800 copy/ml | 500~1200 copy/ml |
Reliability | With fixed, non-moving optical components, long-term use does not require costly and cumbersome periodic calibration maintenance. | General instruments require moving parts for scanning assistance to achieve multi-channel detection, which reduces reliability; some products require refrigeration equipment, which are bulky, regularly calibrated, and have high maintenance costs. |
Transport and Storage | The use of freeze-dried detection reagents eliminates the need for cold chain transportation, reducing transportation costs and ensuring performance. The instrument product is small in size and has no moving parts inside, saving transportation costs and space. | Generally, cold chain transport is required, which has high-temperature requirements for transport and storage temperature. It needs to be stored at -20 °C. After repeated freezing and thawing, it will cause performance loss. Instrument products are large in size, high in transportation cost, and contain moving parts inside, which are easily damaged by transportation. |
Anitoa Maverick qPCR Series
Maverick series of qPCR instruments adopt our in-house ULS24 "ultra-low-light CMOS image sensor (CIS) chip", which has the advantages of ultra-high sensitivity, large dynamic range of detection, and low noise. High sensitivity fluorogenic detection can be achieved without refrigeration mechanism, providing the PCR instrument with capability of single copy detection. With no internal moving parts, Maverick is rugged and requires no calibration to operate.
