GeneXpert^® System

The world’s only fully-integrated real-time PCR system.

The GeneXpert^® System is the first to fully automate and integrate all the steps required for PCR-based DNA / RNA testing: sample preparation (DNA / RNA extraction), amplification and detection. Designed to simplify hands-on preparation, the system provides PCR test results from a raw sample in about an hour, enabling time-critical tests at the point of need.

Xpert^® test: Cepheid currently markets IVD tests for use in the areas of Healthcare Acquired Infections (HAI), Critical Infectious Disease, and Women's Health.
