Empowering healthworkers with the answers they need in less than 30 minutes
Q-POC™ is a simple to use, portable and battery-operated molecular diagnostic system which offers true sample to answer analysis within 30 minutes, depending on the complexity of the test.
QuantuMDx are developing Q-POC™ - The Future of Diagnostics.
Taking the lab to the patient anywhere in the world. Drug sensitivity testing at your fingertips.
The Problem
Current diagnostics can be broken into two general groups, either simple and unreliable or complex and infastructure reliant. Each has its strengths, but also its limitations which result in inefficiencies for healthcare systems and patients.

The Solution
Empowering healthworkers with the answers they need in less than 30 minutes
Our portable, battery-operated molecular diagnostic device will provide sample-to-result testing within 30 minutes, depending on the complexity of the test.
Sample-to-answer molecular diagnostic testing in less than 30 minutes
DNA analysis at your fingertips
Q-POC’s superior multiplexing capabilities will bring the power of precision medicine to health professionals globally...
Sample prep
Rapid lysis is performed chemically and, where necessary, with heat.
DNA extraction
DNA purification using a novel filter to capture contaminant cellular components such as carbohydrates and proteins, leaving the DNA in solution.
DNA amplification
Shuttle-flow PCR using static heat blocks. Microfluidics cycle the sample over these heat blocks, for rapid ramping.
DNA detection
Sensitive in-line optics observe the generation of fluorescence as the target region is amplified providing a qPCR read-out, for sample to qPCR result.
