What is Vitro Diagnostic Testing?

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) is a system of methods and systems used to diagnose, treat or prevent health conditions. These tests are conducted using blood, saliva or tissue samples taken from a patient. Samples are generally taken by drawing phials of blood, or swabs from the nose or the back of the throat. Many testing systems require only a drop of blood.

IVD products are generally non-invasive. The medical devices used for IVD testing include any instruments, appliance and/or software intended to be used for

  • Diagnosing, preventing, monitoring or treating disease or injury
  • Supporting or sustaining life
  • Regulating conception
  • Disinfecting medical instruments
  • Collecting medical information by collecting samples from humans.

How Can abioSCOPE Help?

abioSCOPE is a revolutionary IVD point-of-care platform from abionic. It uses patented nanofluidic technology that enables fast diagnosis with use of very small samples. The technology forces molecules from the sample into a nanochannel, limiting the travel distance to a few hundred nanometres and reducing incubation times to only two minutes.

The benefits of the abioSCOPE platform include:

  • The fastest point-of-care diagnosis ever developed. You get the first result within five minutes.
  • Intuitive and easy operation. Abionic’s technology is accessible, and the test is easy and painless for the patient.
  • Compatible with a wide range of applications and software.
  • Clinical validation on all analytical performances.
  • Works with only a single drop of blood – just a few µL of whole blood sample.

The abioSCOPE disrupts today’s blood testing standards and brings laboratory quality tests right to the patient’s bedside. It analyses up to 14 different parameters simultaneously – all in just five minutes, instead of hours.
