The COVID-19 pandemic is rapidly growing, and outbreak investigations are ongoing. It is important to track, test and treat as good and fast as possible.
Biomedica provides a comprehensive solution for COVID-19 and Companion Diagnostics as well as Research Tools and Medical Products to fight against COVID-19.

  Diagnostics

Biomedica provides a comprehensive solution for COVID-19 and Companion Diagnostics. We offer the complete package for the COVID-19 Diagnostics which includes real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) tests, point-of-care testing of IgM/IgG and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Important element of COVID-19 response will be the rapid detection and appropriate management of co-infections and secondary infections. Here we provide products for the Companion Diagnostics too.
Together with our partners, we work to ensure continuous access to products and support.

COVID-19 – Companion Diagnostics

• Triage mild of servere outcome
  
  • suPAR is a marker of chronic inflammation, which is associated with clinical severity and mortality. With regard to COVID-19, it is likely that suPAR can triage whether patients will have a mild or a severe outcome of the infection. Learn more please click: LINK
    
    

• Bacterial and Fungal Co-Infections / Sepsis
  Bacterial and fungal co-infections, including antibiotic resistance are shown in the early data from Wuhan. This confirms the previous pandemic data that indicated bacterial co-infection rates as high as 29%, and rates of sepsis above 30% among ICU patients.
  
  
  • T2 Biosystems provides the only FDA-cleared products to identify bacterial and fungal pathogens as well as resistances directly from whole blood by using fully automated T2 Magnetic Resonance technology (T2Dx).
