Frequently asked questions
Is this test capable of rapid diagnostic results?
Yes, this kit is designed for high-efficiency clinical environments. It delivers accurate molecular diagnostic results in just 35 minutes, significantly reducing the time required for clinical decision-making compared to traditional culture methods.
Does the kit detect multiple strep pathogens simultaneously?
Yes. The Solana Strep Complete Assay is designed for comprehensive detection, targeting both Group A B-hemolytic Streptococcus and pyogenic Group C/G Streptococcus in a single testing workflow.
Is the workflow straightforward for laboratory staff?
The workflow is highly streamlined to minimize manual steps:
- Process the throat swab via heat-based lysis.
- Perform a simple dilution.
- Add the sample to the specialized reaction tubes for the Solana instrument.
What type of technology powers these tests?
The assay utilizes advanced Helicase-Dependent Amplification (HDA) technology. It specifically targets the DNAase B (sdaB) sequence to identify Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus dysgalactiae with high sensitivity.
Are these tests compatible with LIS integration?
Yes, once processed in the Solana instrument, the results are displayed on the touchscreen. The system supports LIS integration, as well as data export via USB, printing, and local storage options for comprehensive record keeping.
Does this kit meet high regulatory standards?
Yes, this kit is BAA (Buy American Act) compliant and TAA (Trade Agreement Act) compliant, ensuring it meets rigorous standards for quality and sourcing.
How should the test kit be stored?
To maintain the integrity and accuracy of the reagents, this product requires refrigeration. Please ensure storage temperatures are monitored according to the manufacturer’s provided technical documentation.
What exactly is included in the 48-test kit?
Each kit includes all necessary components to perform 48 complete assays:
- 48 Strep Dilution Buffer Tubes
- 48 Strep Complete Lysis Buffer Tubes
- 48 GAS (Group A Strep) Reaction Tubes
- 48 Strep C/G Reaction Tubes
Is this kit appropriate for all laboratory settings?
The Solana Strep Complete Assay is classified as Moderate Complexity (Non-Waived), making it ideal for clinical laboratory environments that are equipped to handle non-waived molecular diagnostic procedures.
Can I use this with other molecular instruments?
No, this assay is specifically optimized and validated for use exclusively with the Solana molecular diagnostic system to ensure accurate, machine-read results.
