The Rapid Capture® System offers enhanced productivity, performance and simplicity to the laboratory:
To enhance lab PRODUCTIVITY, the Rapid Capture® System:
- Provides high throughput
- – Over 350 results per 6.5–hour run.
- Reduces labor
for preparation of samples collected in ThinPrep® (Cytyc Corp.) medium
- – Provides 3.5 hours of hands–free operation.
- – Offers bar–coding capability.
- – Reduces potential transcription errors, using LIS connectivity to ensure smooth interface with existing hospital information systems.
- Incorporates multi–specimen tube (MST) conversion process into the procedure
- – Allows conversion racks to be placed directly on the Rapid Capture System platform.
- – Minimizes repetitive motion steps by vortexing racks holding 96 samples, rather than individual samples.
- – Reduces labor up to 35% for preparation of ThinPrep® samples.
- Accommodates multiple sample types and test methods
- – ThinPrep Pap test samples can be used for HPV testing.*
- – Used with the DML 2000 Luminometer, reports both CT and GC results from same sample, saving time and resources.
- – Avoids need to collect separate specimens.
- Consolidates the workstation
- – Eliminates the need for separate work areas, unidirectional work flow and dedicated, amplicon–free lab space.
- Eliminates the need to mitigate contamination or inhibition
To maximize PERFORMANCE, the Rapid Capture® System:
- Provides clinical sensitivity equivalent to target–amplification systems.
- Has less potential for false positives caused by cross–contamination, avoiding costly follow–up procedures.
- Reduces potential for false negatives caused by enzymatic inhibition.
- Provides a separate luminometer system that interprets signal–amplified results from a chemiluminescent reaction
To improve SIMPLICITY, the Rapid Capture® System:
- Uses intuitive software which makes it easy to set up and learning easy
- Uses the Digene DNA collection device for one–step sample preparation
- Is ideal for HPV, CT and GC testing
- Accommodates multiple bar–code formats
- Facilitates workstation consolidation
