We put a lab in a tube... Because they put their trust in you. When diagnostic testing is needed to inform time-sensitive treatment decisions, healthcare professionals want reliably accurate results as swiftly as possible. With the Roche cobas® Liat PCR System,* you can offer on-demand STAT testing with the excellent performance of real-time PCR technology, at your laboratory or at satellite locations within your institution. Compact, easy to use and requiring minimal training, the cobas® Liat System allows you to generate results that are as trustworthy as those provided by larger PCR systems in 20 minutes or less. And because the cobas® Liat System is a secure and fully-closed system, it can help you reduce the risk of cross-contamination and preserve sample integrity. The cobas® Liat System fully automates PCR for single-sample testing: It’s a fast-lane to results, without shortcuts in quality. Pending CLIA Waiver in the United States Introducing the Roche cobas® Liat PCR System Meeting time-sensitive diagnostic needs with singular ingenuity Taking PCR technology further, faster The cobas® Liat System fully automates PCR testing—from sample prep to results—for the rapid analysis of a single sample at a time. The cobas® Liat System is a next-generation real-time PCR system designed for on-demand STAT testing, enabling use at satellite locations within your institution. The system includes a small benchtop analyzer safeguarded by an extensive array of instrument controls, and assay tubes tailor-made for specific targets. The cobas® Liat System automates the entire testing process, from sample prep to amplification to real-time detection. Definitive, objective PCR results that can be understood at a glance are generated—and verified by an internal process control—in 20 minutes or less. Small… Compact benchtop analyzer. Convenient size for space-challenged testing locations. Swift… Results in 20 minutes or less. Single assay runs allow time-sensitive testing and reporting. Simple… Fully automated system with touchscreenguided operation. Minimal hands-on time. Secure… Sealed-tube design eliminates any operator contact with reagents or other chemicals. Closed system with instrument and internal process controls to reduce potential for cross-contamination and human error. “Recognized as one of the most important scientific advances of the 20th century,1 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a quick, easy way to create unlimited copies of DNA from just one original strand.” 1 Mark R. Hughes, deputy director of the National Center for Human Genome Research at the National Institutes of Health (perhaps better known as the Human Genome Project). 88Each cobas® Liat assay tube contains all assay reagents prepared in isolated segments 88The cobas® Liat Analyzer automates all nucleic acid testing processes, including reagent preparation, target enrichment, inhibitor removal, nucleic acid extraction, amplification and real-time detection Tube identification Sample segment 88The analyzer compresses the assay tube to selectively release reagents from tube segments, moves the sample from one segment to another, and controls reaction conditions at different temperatures Dilution buffer Internal process control Proteinase K Silica magnetic beads Lysis buffer Wash buffer Elution buffer Master Mix 1 Master Mix 2 Contents may vary by assay.
