Syndrome Evaluation System (SES)- A patented technology that comprises of rapid multiplex amplification and accurate identification of the virulence associated genes of the causative agents or organisms. This amazingly fast and accurate platform transcends all conventional diagnostic tests and helpful when organisms are difficult to cultivate or difficult to find. The accurate and rapid identification of the causative agents (7 hours of process time) empowers the clinician to initiate targeted therapy and thus save lives and significantly reduce disabilities such as blindness, paralysis, compromised mental faculties.
The technologies currently available for diagnosis of infections are grossly inadequate to detect early during the illness and institute specific therapy in critical illnesses resulting in loss of function or even loss of life.
The XCyton Advantage- Rapid: Process time of 7 hours
- Higher Accuracy: detects more number of cases than conventional methods if conventional method detects 10-15% SES can give you a detection of 75%
- Cost effectives: Avoids multiple testing and unnecessary investigations and reduces ICU stay
- Provides Direct evidence for the presence of infection - detects DNA of pathogens
- Comprehensive: Detects fungi, viruses, parasites and bacteria in a single test. It also detects uni-microbial or poly-microbial infections
- Rules in or Rules out infections
- Helps Clinician Save lives and Prevent Disabilities
The technology involves isolation of the genetic material of the causative agent from the given specimen and simultaneous amplification of the "Syndrome Specific Signature genes" of all the probable causative agents, followed by "Syndrome Specific Hybridization".
The amplification of the gene allows for higher sensitivity of the test and the re-naturation of the amplified signature gene to its chemically identified complementary gene sequence on the SES allows for higher specificity of the test. And the simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens allows for early diagnosis of the infection and initiation of therapy. XCyton offers SES as Molecular Diagnostic Services for various critical illnesses in three verticals - Eye Infections, Brain Infections and Sepsis or Blood stream infections.
