Fast, Easy, and Reliably Accurate

PCR analysis is traditionally a multi-step process where a skilled lab technician tests many samples simultaneously. The cobas® Liat® PCR System fully automates these steps, allowing for the rapid, accurate analysis of single samples.

Offering a turn-around time of 20 minutes or less, this fast, flexible solution requires minimal training, making it ideal for situations when there is a pressing need for a rapid diagnosis and treatment decision. The cobas® Liat® PCR System is on-site molecular testing you can depend on, whether it’s in STAT or out-of-hours situations or for use in point of care or satellite locations.
