Credo Solo

Summary

VitaSIRO solo is a lightweight, standalone, cartridge-based real-time PCR system that integrates magnetic-bead nucleic-acid extraction and multiplex PCR in a single “sample in, results out” workflow. It supports a broad range of specimens (UTM/VTM, blood, urine, saliva, feces, etc.), shows real-time amplification curves/Ct on a 7" touchscreen, and can deliver results in about 40 minutes (assay-dependent). The platform is portable (3.6 kg), plug-and-play (no extra equipment), connects to LIS/HIS via POCT1-A, and targets multiplex detection (marketing notes up to 6 targets per run; overview mentions up to 8, likely assay-dependent). Menus cover respiratory, HAI (MRSA), women’s health/STIs, GI pathogens, human genotyping, and more (some assays CE-IVDD; others under development/RUO).

Main features

  • All-in-one microfluidic cartridge: automated lysis → bead binding → wash → elution → multiplex real-time PCR

  • Turnaround: ~40 min results (varies by assay)

  • Multiplexing: detects multiple targets per run (up to 6–8 depending on assay)

  • Specimen types: UTM/VTM, blood, urine, saliva, feces, etc.

  • Ease of use: minimal sample prep; true plug-and-play; “collect → transfer → start run”

  • Display & analytics: 7" capacitive touchscreen with real-time fluorescence curves and Ct values

  • Optics: 6 + 1 fluorescence channels (internal control); detection range 450–750 nm

  • Connectivity: automatic result transfer to LIS/HIS via POCT1-A and other protocols; built-in 1D/2D barcode scanner

  • Portability: 3.6 kg; small footprint 23.1 × 20.0 × 27.0 cm (H×W×D)

  • Power: 12 V/5 A (AC adaptor 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz)

  • Operating/storage: operate 10–38 °C, 10–80% RH; store 15–40 °C

  • Intended use settings: decentralized/near-patient testing (ER, nursing homes, labs, airports, factories, resource-limited sites)

  • Assay menu (examples): SARS-CoV-2/Flu/RSV; MRSA; HPV; CT/NG/TV/MG; GI (bacterial & viral); cTnI biomarker; human genotyping (e.g., MT-RNR1 SNP, ADH/ALDH).
