Rapid Multiplex Molecular Diagnostics for Clinical and Research Laboratories

If your clinical laboratory is bottlenecked by tedious sample preparation or slow turnaround times, the BioFire FilmArray Torch PCR system with 2 modules offers the ultimate scalable solution for high-throughput syndromic testing. This advanced, sample-to-answer molecular diagnostic platform utilizes integrated nested multiplex PCR technology to automate nucleic acid extraction, amplification, and pathogen detection in a single closed pouch. Featuring two independent testing modules, the system allows you to process multiple panels simultaneously, delivering comprehensive results for respiratory, gastrointestinal, bloodstream, and pneumonia assays in just under an hour. The closed-system design drastically reduces hands-on labor to under two minutes while minimizing contamination risks, making it an indispensable, robust tool for active antimicrobial stewardship programs, hospital labs, and public health facilities.

FilmArray Torch PCR Molecular Testing System: Reliable Performance at Lower Cost

The BioFire FilmArray Torch Molecular Testing System with 2 modules provides a cost-effective molecular diagnostics platform for clinical, hospital, public health, and reference laboratories seeking rapid syndromic testing for infectious diseases. New systems typically range from approximately $60,000 to $65,000, while certified pre-owned units are available for approximately $25,000, offering substantial savings on initial capital investment. In addition to acquisition costs, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses including FilmArray test pouches, quality control materials, service agreements, software support, instrument calibration, preventive maintenance, and regulatory compliance activities. Long-term ownership costs are influenced primarily by testing volume and consumable usage. At the same time, the system's automated sample-to-answer workflow helps reduce labor costs, training requirements, and hands-on technician time. Purchasing a certified pre-owned BioFire FilmArray Torch PCR Molecular Testing System with 2 modules allows laboratories to significantly lower capital expenditures while benefiting from rapid multiplex pathogen detection, streamlined workflow automation, flexible testing capacity, reliable molecular performance, and proven diagnostic capabilities for respiratory, gastrointestinal, bloodstream, meningitis, and other syndromic infectious disease testing applications.

Respiratory Diagnostics Workflow (Respiratory Panel) Using the FilmArray Torch Biomerieux PCR Molecular Testing System with 2 Modules

The BioFire FilmArray Torch Molecular Testing System with 2 modules provides a highly effective solution for respiratory diagnostics workflows through its comprehensive multiplex PCR respiratory panel capabilities. The system automates nucleic acid extraction, amplification, detection, and result interpretation within a single sample-to-answer platform, significantly reducing hands-on time and simplifying laboratory operations. Clinical and hospital laboratories benefit from the rapid and simultaneous detection of multiple viral and bacterial respiratory pathogens from a single patient sample, enabling faster clinical decision-making, improved patient management, and more effective infection control measures. The two-module configuration offers flexible testing capacity for low- to medium-volume laboratories while maintaining consistent turnaround times and high analytical performance. The FilmArray Torch delivers excellent sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility, helping laboratories accurately identify pathogens such as influenza viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus, seasonal coronaviruses, and other common respiratory agents. Combined with streamlined workflow automation, minimal technical complexity, rapid results, and proven molecular diagnostic reliability, the BioFire Diagnostics FilmArray Torch PCR Molecular Testing System with 2 Modules provides a powerful and efficient platform for modern respiratory panel testing and infectious disease diagnostics.
