2 Quidel is a leading manufacturer of diagnostic healthcare solutions serving to enhance the health and well-being of people around the globe through the development of diagnostic solutions that can lead to improved patient outcomes and provide economic benefits to the healthcare system. Our product base and technology platforms have continued to expand through internal development and acquisitions of other products and technologies allowing for a core competency that includes: Immuno and molecular assay development Automated manufacturing lateral flow (LF) technologies Direct fluorescent antibodies (DFA) production Monoclonal antibody characterization Current molecular solutions for infectious disease testing often require tradeoffs between throughput, lengthy turnaround times, highly complex workflows, and unsustainable costs. With Solana, you can stop compromising, and start treating. Solana is a small, easy to use bench top instrument offering scalable and flexible solutions for molecular testing that delivers highly accurate results in an actionable timeframe. Combined with a growing menu of molecular assays, Solana is providing results you can trust when accuracy is critical, on a platform built for your lab. Making highly accurate, molecular results faster and more accessible than ever before.

3 Workflow Benefits of Solana Assays Feature Isothermal amplification Simplified molecular workflow 2-tube chamber Small foot-print QC patient and data management USB data export LIS connectivity Benefit Ensures molecular sensitivity with multiple analytes. Eliminates thermal cycling to aid in faster time to result (as little as 30 minutes). Allows for different samples (up to 2) to be processed concurrently in a single run. Avoids the need for specialized molecular operator training. Enables molecular testing on 3rd shift and in near-patient settings. Decreases turn around times as different patient samples are run at one time. Supports flexible panel testing on one or multiple samples. Facilitates placements in near-patient locations (e.g. emergency rooms, STAT labs, doctors offices). Captures and stores QC data automatically to reduce time spent on manual record keeping. Assists in the transfer of information without the need to direct connection to LAN. Avoids transcriptional errors. Streamlines reporting. Decreases time wasted on manual documentation. Assay run time for 2 samples Sample/Cartridge Prep System Programming Lysis/Extraction Step Assay Run Time Solana 2-tube chamber Competitive Isothermal System single-tube chamber Minutes Other single-tube chamber test systems take up to 5 times longer to process the same 2 samples than Solana in a single run.
