• The Phoenix instrument is designed to operate in concert with a unique, low-cost consumable disc. The disc is inserted into the Phoenix for fully automated processing. The disc can utilize anti-coagulated whole blood, plasma, serum, and other body fluids. 

 

• Whole blood is processed to plasma via high-speed centrifugation and incubated. The assay processor then adds buffers and moves the processed analyte though the fluidic circuit using a novel transport method to facilitate washing and resuspension of single analyte molecules for scanning.

 

• The "SAFE" runtime QC system processes imagery and laser scans at key steps, analyzing thousands of pieces of data, in real-time to ensure quality metrics are achieved. Positive controls are run simultaneously with each sample to further ensure integrity of the results.

 

• Within the instrument Novilux internally designed and built key components optimized for the application. By taking this approach, rather than integrating available general-purpose components, Novilux can achieve robust, high performance at low cost. 

​

• The result:  The Phoenix platform packs a host of highly sophisticated and highly optimized elements into a tiny, low-cost, fully automated package generating Best in World performance at the Point-of-Care.
