Diagnostic Hybrids

D³ FastPoint is a Revolutionary Technology that allows for the detection of 8 viruses* with DFA accuracy in under 25 minutes from specimen receipt to virus detection.

Accuracy Matters

D³ FastPoint^TM gives you the accuracy of DFA direct specimen testing in a rapid timeframe. This allows laboratories to report results within the critical care window.

Multiplex Format

D³ FastPoint's fluorescent technology provides results in 3 wells by combining FITC and R-Phycoerythrin (R-PE) labeled antibodies in one reagent. These fluorescent results can be read using a fluorescence microscope with a single filter set, making virus identification more efficient.

Expanded Test Menu

D³ FastPoint tests for up to 8 viruses* instead of the 3 viruses available with traditional rapid antigen tests. With this extended testing menu, you can now offer a full suite of accurate respiratory results to physicians.

Please contact your sales representative for more information about the D³ FastPoint L-DFA^TM Respiratory Identification Kit.

*8 viruses are detected in 6 viral groups. Parainfluenza 1, 2, and 3 are tested in a pool.
