OVERVIEW

MAGPIX®, a flow-based reader, is the simplest, most affordable, and most compact of the xMAP® instruments. This compact multiplexing unit performs up to 50 different tests in a single reaction volume and reads a 96-well plate in just 60 minutes. MAGPIX features self-cleaning routines and magnetic bead compatibility (with MagPlex® beads), making the instrument easy to learn and easy to use.

NXTAG® GASTROINTESTINAL PATHOGEN PANEL (CE-IVD)

The NxTAG® Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel (GPP) is a multiplex PCR test that detects nucleic acids from 16 bacterial, viral, and parasitic targets in diarrheal stools on an easy-to-use, single-well, closed-tube system. As opposed to traditional workflows (which can take multiple days), NxTAG GPP delivers same-day results — including extraction and processing.

  • A streamlined workflow

    • The NxTAG workflow makes GI testing much easier, providing results in 3 hours post-extraction.

  • Minimal hands-on time

    • Simplify your workflow with pre-plated lyophilized reagents.

  • Comprehensive coverage of GI pathogens

    • Detect a broad range of bacterial, viral, and parasite targets in a single tube.

  • Scalable throughput

    • Run 1-96 samples at a time based on your needs.

NxTAG® Respiratory
Pathogen Panel +
SARS-CoV-2 (CE-IVD)

The NxTAG® Respiratory Pathogen Panel + SARS-CoV-2 (NxTAG® RPP + SARS-CoV-2) is a qualitative test for the detection of nucleic acids from multiple respiratory viruses and bacteria in nasopharyngeal swabs, oropharyngeal swabs, nasal swabs, anterior nasal swabs, mid-turbinate nasal swabs, nasal aspirates, and nasal washes. This assay is designed for use on the NxTAG-enabled MAGPIX® System.

  • Comprehensive Panel:

    • Detects 20 viral pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2 (ORF1ab and M gene) and 3 bacterial pathogens, in a single well — enabling thorough respiratory health analysis.

  • Scalable Throughput:

    • Process up to 96 samples in less than 3 hours post-extraction, accommodating variable, day-to-day testing demands.

  • Minimal Hands-on Time:

    • Pre-plated, lyophilized reagents facilitate a simple workflow with just one pipetting step, ensuring an easy fit into any lab’s daily routine.
