• Start the sample when it comes in. No reason to reject samples or delay testing because the lab isn’t open during the read window.

• Positive results within hours. You don’t need to wait until tomorrow to see a positive – you’ll be notified of positives immediately via email.

• Easy-to-use interface. Operators or other personnel can be trained to start tests if lab staff are not available.
