Activate the Panther system.

The Panther system consolidates a broad assay menu on a single, fully automated platform that enables you to test for infectious pathogens and sexually transmitted infections (STIs)—including HIV-1, Zika virus*, chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, and trichomoniasis—in parallel.

Load-and-go automation without batching restrictions.
Run multiple assays—up to 4—simultaneously for increased efficiency.
True walk-away freedom with less hands-on time for flexible workflow and streamlined efficiency.

Leave the batch behind.

Deliver more same-day results to your customers, with no batching restrictions.

Load samples as they arrive, in any order.
Prioritize and run urgent samples.
Run as few as 1 or as many as 94 clinical samples, with no additional controls required.

Unlock potential with random access.

Customize your workflow with random access on the Panther system.

Access the instrument at any time to load additional samples or reagents.
Continuous access so you can unload processed samples and load new samples as needed.
Unload and store reagents as needed to reduce waste.

Increase productivity with full automation.

Load and go with less hands-on time than any other viral load platform.

Load and process primary tubes (PPT, ACD, and EDTA) directly on the Panther system.
No sample transfer or pipetting required.
No operator intervention necessary during a run.

Small footprint. Big possibilities.^1-4

More results with less space: <1 square meter and over 300 results in less than 8 hours.

True sample-to-result automation: All sample processing, amplification, and detection in one contained unit.
Potential to consolidate a broad assay menu onto one fully automated instrument.
