  • Title: The GenMark ePlex®: another weapon in the syndromic arsenal for infection diagnosis.
    Author: Schmitz JE, Tang YW.
    Journal: Future Microbiol; 2018 Dec; 13(16):1697-1708. PubMed ID: 30547684.
    Abstract:
    As one of the most recent additions to the syndromic testing landscape, the ePlex® platform by GenMark Diagnostics is a system that combines the manufacturer's signature electrochemical detection technology with updated microfluidics, providing a new option for multiplex testing that is both rapid and requires minimal hands-on steps. In this review, we detail the ePlex platform and its current/future syndromic panels, with a particular focus on the respiratory pathogen panel - the platform's first assay to undergo clinical trials and receive regulatory approval in the USA. By keeping informed of these ever-expanding laboratory options, clinicians and microbiologists can stay positioned at the forefront of infectious disease diagnosis.
