WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rhinostics Inc. is excited to denote an expanded concern with LVL technologies GmbH, which includes Rhinostics’ reselling of LVL’s decapper instrumentality and LVL’s organisation of Rhinostics’ automated postulation devices successful Germany and Austria. By combining the Rhinostics’ illustration postulation instrumentality ingenuity with decapper technology, laboratories tin payment from an instantly scalable automated swab and tiny measurement humor postulation processing workflow. Automation breaks done manual bottlenecks during capping and recapping steps truthful that laboratories tin summation throughput and consistency portion besides decreasing cumbersome steps arsenic good arsenic reagent and labour costs.
“Today, researchers, clinicians, and patients alike expect much erstwhile it comes to illustration postulation and diagnostic workflows from respiratory pathogens, sexually transmitted infections, familial investigating to crab biomarkers and overmuch more,” explained Cheri Walker, PhD, President and CEO of Rhinostics. “We’re excited to grow our concern with LVL, our supplier of high-quality postulation tubes to Rhinostics during the pandemic and beyond. The companies person enjoyed a adjacent relationship, and we tin present connection a afloat solution for our customers by launching a customized mentation of LVL’s robust decapper instrumentality to the market.”
“We are highly pleased to grow our concern with Rhinostics,” said Martin von Lueder, Chief Executive Officer of LVL. “We person watched Rhinostics bring manufacture changing, purpose-built illustration postulation devices that are automation-enabled to the market. The LVL decapper instrumentality is the cleanable complement to their consumables, allowing improvements to inefficient swab and humor postulation workflows. Additionally, we look guardant to offering the Rhinostics products to our customers.”
As portion of the partnership, the RHINObot™ has been optimized for usage with the RHINOstic® Automated Swab – a patent-pending illustration postulation instrumentality that integrates a unsocial polypropylene-based swab with an automatable cap.
Nasal, buccal, oregon vaginal samples whitethorn beryllium comfortably collected successful a objective mounting oregon easy self-collected arsenic portion of an at-home trial kit. After collection, the swab is securely screwed into a small, barcoded transport tube. This transport conduit whitethorn beryllium shipped without usage of viral transport oregon different media to trim reagent costs arsenic good arsenic risks of leaking, accidental biohazard exposure, and imaginable PCR interference owed to VTM oregon different media components. Dry shipment besides enables greater illustration concentrations to boost assurance successful delicate PCR, adjacent procreation sequencing (NGS), ELISA methods, adjacent astatine precise debased pathogen levels.
Once successful the laboratory, samples whitethorn beryllium loaded onto the RHINObot™ for automated decapping and capping of up to 96 samples successful little than 1 minute. This hands-free workflow eliminates idiosyncratic variability and reduces labour clip by up to 80+% to importantly alteration per-test costs.
The collaborative statement volition see co-promoting the RHINOstic® and RHINObot™ solution on with selling and acquisition initiatives aimed astatine making customers alert of the accrued convenience, speed, and consistency of the automated workflow.
About Rhinostics
Rhinostics is astatine the forefront of revolutionizing illustration collection. As a spin-out institution from Harvard University and Wyss Institute, we are taking a extremist caller attack to illustration postulation instrumentality plan and function. COVID-19 formed airy connected the urgent request to amended laboratory workflows. Rhinostics was calved to conscionable the moment. Our agreed ngo is to revolutionize laboratory workflows, 1 purpose-built postulation instrumentality astatine a time. We amended illustration postulation comfortableness and show portion bringing efficiencies to the laboratory to region costs and prevention clip compared to accepted illustration postulation intake. Our groundbreaking technologies see functional design, caller materials, and automation solutions for removing caps and accelerated accessioning for hands-free workflows. This enables robust high-throughput assays from commencement to decorativeness with minimal quality intervention, redeeming clip and reducing costs.
Rhinostics’ archetypal product, the RHINOstic® Automated Swab, immunodeficiency investigating wide diagnostic and beingness subject workflows, successful areas similar respiratory disease, genomics, STDs, forensics and overmuch more. The institution continues to innovate, launching a caller small-volume humor postulation device, the VERIstic™, and processing a pipeline of caller illustration postulation devices that are purpose-built for their exertion combined with automation enablement.
