QIAstat-Dx Rise

• Uses real-time PCR to deliver comprehensive results for up to 160 patient samples per day with 8 Analytical Modules
• Easily view Ct values and amplification curves for all detected pathogens
• Single-step cartridge preparation with no precision pipetting required and unique direct swab protocol
• Load the full capacity of cartridges in just a few minutes and safely dispose of all used cartridges from the waste tray in one quick step

QIAstat-Dx simplifies infectious disease diagnostics so you can get faster results for your patients. All you need are a patient sample, a QIAstat-Dx assay cartridge and one of our intuitive QIAstat-Dx instruments. 

QIAstat-Dx Rise is our higher-throughput powerhouse, built to fit the needs of high-demand institutions. Combined with QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges, QIAstat-Dx Rise uses multiplex PCR technology – also known as syndromic testing – to quickly survey many different pathogens in a single patient sample. The cartridges come ready with all reagents preloaded and use our trusted assay chemistry. The system includes random access and batch testing options, with a daily capacity of 160 samples using 8 Analytical Modules. The QIAstat-Dx Rise also includes a multi-test front drawer that can accommodate up to 18 cartridges at the same time, and a waste drawer to automatically collect used cartridges.

Each instrument is made up of two components: 1) A QIAstat-Dx Rise Base, which contains the intuitive touch-screen interface and robotic system that moves and scans the cartridges within the device and 2) Between 1 through 8 Analytical Modules, letting you test up to eight samples at once. 

With QIAstat-Dx Rise in your lab, you can: 

• Gain time away from your instruments: Batch process up to 16 cartridges using 8 Analytical modules.
• Process priority tests fast: Get random access through 2 additional urgent testing slots. 
• Load and go: Load the full capacity of cartridges in just a few minutes and safely dispose of used tests in one step.

Plus, every QIAstat-Dx Analytical Module is compatible with both QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0 and QIAstat-Dx Rise. Easily update your QIAstat-Dx testing format based on your evolving testing needs. Click here to more about QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0, our modular system perfect for labs of every size.

QIAstat-Dx Rise, combined with QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges, uses real-time PCR to detect pathogen nucleic acids in human biological samples. The instrument and cartridges are designed as a closed system that contain on board all necessary reagents, enabling hands-off sample preparation. Detected real-time amplification signals are interpreted by the integrated software and are reported via an intuitive user interface.

Preparing a QIAstat-Dx cartridge using liquid transfer or dry swab sample application is efficient and fast. And once the cartridges are ready, it takes just a few minutes to load the full capacity of cartridges and start a run on QIAstat-Dx Rise. 

Loading a sample into the QIAstat-Dx cartridge requires less than one minute hands-on time with no precision pipetting.

Using the provided transfer pipette, the user applies a liquid sample to the main port of the QIAstat-Dx cartridge (see  Applying a liquid sample to the QIAstat-Dx cartridge). Alternatively for our respiratory assay, a dry swab sample may be directly applied to the cartridge ( Applying a dry swab to the QIAstat-Dx cartridge).

Following the instructions on the QIAstat-Dx Rise touchscreen display, the user loads the prepared cartridges into the instrument’s loading tray (see  Adding cartridges to the QIAstat-Dx Rise input tray).

The QIAstat-Dx Rise will automatically scan the sample ID and cartridge barcodes, or the user can manually scan the barcodes. Once the user starts the run, the QIAstat-Dx Rise will autonomously process the samples. 

The input tray also offers random and continuous access, meaning an urgent test can be added to an ongoing run at a moment’s notice. 

Once the run is finished, the used cartridges are automatically placed in the dedicated waste tray so they can be disposed of safely and quickly.
