Improve quality of patient care: Rapid therapeutic decisions based on
paradigm shift from central lab to testing at Point-Of-Care (POC).
Food-borne illness is a global issue. According to CDC&P (USA):
~76 million cases annually; ~5000 deaths a year
direct costs $46 billion (lost productivity/health care)

Health clinic users seek fast, easy & lowcost for common, non-critical conditions
(Philips and bioMerieux are in partnership to develop POC devices for the IVD sector)

The PCR product peak (299 bps) represents the presence of BK virus in a sample
LOD quoted is about 20pg/uL (similar to agarose gel/ethidium bromide method)
16
Sold as modular portable toolkit for POC application, NOT as final assays
Performance claim:equivalent to other expensive commercial systems
The entire system in its current form is shoebox-sized
Total component cost of ca. $600!
