DESCRIPTION
Easy-To-Use LoopampTM Technology For Primary And Peripheral Laboratories
Elimination of TB requires appropriate technology that can be used in rural and remote areas. With HumaLoop T the sensitive and accurate molecular detection of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis bacterium complex can be facilitated on a consolidated platform in order to replace smear microscopy.
TB-LAMP Is Robust And Easy To Perform
The LoopampTM workflow allows an easy DNA extraction and preparation of reaction mixes in a few steps with only a minimum of equipment and reagents. Reagent storage and shipment at room temperature as well as the excellent test performance make molecular pathogen testing available in rural areas with limited settings.
- High specificity and sensitivity
- Very short turnaround times
- Simple processing
- High degree of robustness
- Easy result interpretation, either visually (HumaLoop) or by means of a turbidimeter (HumaTurb system)
WHO Recommends TB-LAMP As An Alternative For Smear Microscopy
- TB-LAMP detects > 15 % more positive TB cases
- Is also applicable to confirm smear negative results
- Can be used as first line test for all patient groups when the GeneXpert system is not available
Features
- For small to medium throughput: up to 16 tests/run or up to 70 samples/day
- Preinstalled and fixed incubation times and temperatures for LoopampTM MTBC Detection Kit
- Consolidated processing: sample preparation, amplification and detection on a single instrument
- Explicit interpretation by visual reading of fluorescence signals
- Results in 1 – 2 hrs
Scalable LoopampTM System For Reference And Regional Laboratories
HumaTurb system allows for the real-time detection of turbidity based upon magnesium-pyrophosphate which is generated during the amplification process. The entire system consists of two parts, first HumaTurb C, for the setup and control of incubation time and temperature necessary for amplification of the LoopampTM assay reaction. The amplification takes place in the second part of the system, HumaTurb A.
- For medium to high throughput: up to 96 tests/run (if expanded with 6 HumaTurb A units)
- Different LoopampTM assays can be performed in one run
- Flexible data transfer via USB and LIS connectivity
- Results in 1 – 2 hrs
- Built-in printer
