At Edinburgh Genetics, we offer various innovative diagnostic and research solutions for infectious diseases.

egSEQ NGS
egSEQ NGS-based library preparation and sequencing panels enable the possibility of an agnostic diagnostic method capable of comprehensive detection of multiple pathogens simultaneously, offering a one-test solution for clinicians and patients. Genomic analysis with NGS provides researchers the breadth and depth of information required to distinguish small pathogen strains.

RT-PCR
Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard of molecular diagnostics in clinical laboratories. The technology is based on amplifying pathogen-specific nucleic acids, allowing for the detection and quantification of a pathogen’s genetic material with high sensitivity and specificity.

ActivXpress+ Immunoassay
ActivXpress+ assays are designed to provide diagnostic results conveniently and immediately to the patient. Diagnosing at the point of care reduces the need for multiple visits to receive diagnostic results, improving the specificity of diagnosis and the chances, and reducing dependence on presumptive treatment.
