The MassARRAY® technology is a benchtop system that provides timely and accurate analysis of up to 1000s of samples in a single day. For SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B targets, the platform enables accurate detection with comprehensive coverage. Clinical laboratories can process thousands of samples each day on a single MassARRAY instrument. This makes the new panel one of the highest throughput SARS-CoV-2 variant surveillance tests on the market, and at $25 per sample, a compelling alternative to more costly and complex sequencing technologies.
