QIAstat-Dx Rise

• Uses real-time PCR to deliver comprehensive results for up to 160 patient samples per day with 8 Analytical Modules
• Easily view Ct values and amplification curves for all detected pathogens
• Single-step cartridge preparation with no precision pipetting required
• Easily load the full capacity of cartridges in just a few minutes, or add them continuously, whenever needed
• Safely dispose of all used cartridges from the waste tray in one quick step

QIAstat-Dx simplifies infectious disease diagnostics so you can get faster results for your patients. All you need is a patient sample, a QIAstat-Dx assay cartridge and one of our intuitive QIAstat-Dx instruments.  

QIAstat-Dx Rise is our higher-throughput powerhouse, built to fit the needs of high-demand institutions. Combined with QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges, QIAstat-Dx Rise uses multiplex PCR technology – also known as syndromic testing – to quickly survey many different pathogens in a single patient sample.  

The cartridges come ready with all reagents preloaded and use our trusted assay chemistry. The system includes random access and batch testing options, with a daily capacity of 160 samples using 8 Analytical Modules. The QIAstat-Dx Rise also includes a multi-test front drawer that can process up to 16 cartridges at the same time, and 2 additional slots for urgent testing. When the test is done, all used cartridges are automatically disposed in the dedicated waste drawer. 

Each instrument is made up of two components: 1) A QIAstat-Dx Rise Base, which contains the intuitive touch-screen interface and robotic system that moves and scans the cartridges within the device and 2) up to 8 Analytical Modules, letting you test up to eight samples at once.  

With QIAstat-Dx Rise in your lab, you can get:

• Scalable, high-throughput testing

With scalability up to 8 Analytical Modules, QIAstat-Dx Rise adapts to your needs – automating up to 160 tests daily. 

• Smart drawer system for efficient processing

Load up to 16 cartridges at once – start new tests anytime and prioritize urgent samples without disruption. 

• Versatility that matches your workflow

Choose between targeted or syndromic panels – all on a single platform designed for diagnostic flexibility. 

Plus, every QIAstat-Dx Analytical Module is compatible with both QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0 and QIAstat-Dx Rise. Easily update your QIAstat-Dx testing format based on your evolving testing needs.

QIAstat-Dx Rise, combined with QIAstat-Dx assay cartridges, uses real-time PCR to detect pathogen nucleic acids in human biological samples. The instrument and cartridges are designed as a closed system that contains on board all necessary reagents, enabling hands-off sample preparation. Detected real-time amplification signals are interpreted by the integrated software and are reported via an intuitive user interface.

Preparing a QIAstat-Dx cartridge using liquid transfer is efficient and fast. And once the cartridges are ready, it takes just a few minutes to load the full capacity of cartridges and start a run on QIAstat-Dx Rise.  

Loading a sample into the QIAstat-Dx cartridge requires less than one minute of hands-on time with no precision pipetting. 

Using the provided transfer pipette, the user applies a liquid sample to the main port of the QIAstat-Dx cartridge (see  Applying a liquid sample to the QIAstat-Dx cartridge).  

Following the instructions on the QIAstat-Dx Rise touchscreen display, the user loads the prepared cartridges into the instrument’s loading tray (see  Adding cartridges to the QIAstat-Dx Rise input tray).  

The QIAstat-Dx Rise will automatically scan the sample ID and cartridge barcodes, or the user can manually scan the barcodes. Once the user starts the run, the QIAstat-Dx Rise will autonomously process the samples.  

The input tray also offers random and continuous access, meaning up to 2 additional tests can be added to an ongoing run at a moment’s notice.  

Once the run is finished, the used cartridges are automatically placed in the dedicated waste tray so they can be disposed of safely and quickly.
