For Sale BD BD™ MAX™ Molecular Diagnostic Testing System BD MAX Molecular Diagnostic Testing System

Maximizing workflow efficiency in your laboratory
The BD MAX™ System for molecular diagnostics is the next generation platform which fully automates cell lysis, nucleic acid extraction, PCR set-up, amplification and detection.
Fully-integrated, automated molecular platform capable of running both IVD and open system assays efficiently and flexibly
BD MAX System is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use in performing FDA cleared or approved nucleic acid testing in clinical laboratories. It is capable of automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids from multiple specimen types, as well as the automated amplification and detection of target nucleic acid sequences by fluorescence-based PCR.

The BD MAX System is capable of:
Independent nucleic acid extraction and purification
PCR amplification using thermal cycling across 24 lanes
Real time detection of products of amplification
Identification of each Sample Buffer tube by external barcode reader
Work List verification by internal barcode reader
Fluorescence detection at up to five wavelengths, allowing multiplex reactions by Cycle threshold (Ct) call, or multiplex reactions by melt analysis
Qualitative, quantitative and melt sample analysis

Features:
Integrated and fully-automated extraction and thermocycling steps
Processes and analyzes up to 24 specimens per run
On-board lysis and extraction with pre-filled reagent strips
Real-time PCR with two 24-lane microfluidic PCR readers
Dedicated multi-color optics including: 475/520, 530/565, 585/630, 630/665, 680/715
Consistent results through standardized workflow and protocols
Rapidly expanding menu and open-system options to help address emerging testing needs
Less than one minute of hands on time per sample
CLIA Moderately complex and easy to use
All-in-One computer contains instrument software that is responsible for instrument control, self-calibration, data analysis and storage
User interface can be navigated with point-and-click icons (keyboard and mouse), or the Computer's touchscreen

Modules included:
Temperature control/heating subsystem to control thermal cycling
A liquid handling head to transfer samples from Sample Buffer tubes to Unitized Reagent Strips
Onboard readers to measure the amplification reaction and report results

Software/user interface allows for:
24 unique thermal cycling channels per system (two onboard readers)
Entering patient/sample information, either manually or by external barcode reader
Monitoring operations, communication and storing of data
Qualitative, quantitative and melt sample analysis
Error warnings
Download of results to a USB thumb drive
LIS connectivity
