The new @PrimerdesignLtd PROmate magazines are super smart. Can tell this was clearly designed with the user in mind 
Only way you're going to beat Novacyt's combination of throughput and accuracy is with some massive bit of robotics...

Like a Tecan liquid handling machine (very cool kit this)
But not exactly very portable!

What's very interesting now is that PrimerDesign's Q32's, which are portable micro-engineered rapid PCR devices..
Are now being compared to high-throughput automated industrial liquid handlers

These are entirely different categories of equipment.
Novacyt does supply labs, and is in-fact, as we all know, a primary supplier to AstraZeneca's huge Lighthouse lab.
They even built a custom Covid-HT test for it together.

But diagnostics needs to be decentralised now - we see that clearly.
Diagnostics should be everywhere when needed and simplified so lay people could spend a few hours reading IFUs or training videos and perform a lab accurate PCR test...

All within hours from start to finish. 30 tests even - multiplex too.
No a Q32 can't beat a second mortgage industrial liquid handler in a mega-lab

But it does empower every corner of the world to do the same job, just as accurate and with a throughput of tests per minute.
There is nothing comparable on the market now to the Q32 + PROmate workflow.

Anything else is either dumbed down to perform a single test per hour
Or sacrifices accuracy
Or sacrifices flexibility to perform a wide range of tests

PROmate is the future of user-friendly lab tech.
For now.
Because it looks like Novacyt has a habit of out-doing Novacyt.
What's next in 2021?
