NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCING
Freshstart Medical provides a Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) solution* that is simple, fast, and affordable — putting the power of NGS technology in the reach of labs of all sizes. The solution is easy-to-use, from automated template preparation and library construction, to sequencing, data analysis and reporting.
The automated solution reduces sample-to-sample variability, minimizes risk of rerun due to user error/inconsistency and help produce more accurate results. With parallel preparation and subsequent analysis of up to 16 sample barcodes, sequencing pipelines are optimized.
The Freshstart Medical NGS platform uses semi-conductor based sequencing technologies to translate chemical signals into meaningful information. Ideal for sequencing targeted regions, the integrated Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) solution from Freshstart Medical detects single nucleotide variants as well as insertions and deletions.
Several Freshstart Medical’ NGS assays are being developed to identify sequence variants of demonstrated importance, including gene mutations relevant to oncology and viral genotypes, using a variety of sample materials.
Automated data analysis and reporting with Sentosa Reporter turns sophisticated data into concise, clear reports. Open-channel capability is also available, offering users the opportunity to customize and apply user-defined protocols.

NEAR-PATIENT TESTING WITH GREAT BASIN
Fast Results With Better Patient Outcomes
Freshstart’s breakthrough approach to molecular diagnostics for near-patient testing with the Great Basin platform provides fast, cost-effective diagnosis of infectious diseases. Our easy-to-use assays deliver more diagnostic data per sample, meaning healthcare providers are able to treat patients with the right medication sooner, improving outcomes and reducing costs.
The Great Basin Analyzer is capable of low-plex and multi-plex diagnostics for infectious disease. The system is easy-to-use, freeing up valuable resources and reducing turnaround time for clinicians, thereby providing timely appropriate antibiotic therapy for better patient management, and support of Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs.
The Great Basin system employs an integrated disposable cartridge that contains all necessary reagents, and an inexpensive bench-top analyzer which executes the assay interprets the results and provides electronic output to the clinician.

Easy-to-Use
Sample-to-Result Workflow
Simply load the sample on the card, put the card in the analyzer, start the assay, and receive a definitive result in ~90 minutes, that’s all.
Load the sample on the card, put the card in the analyzer, start the assay, and get a result in ~90 minutes, that’s all.
Features and Benefits
Near-patient testing workflow for sample-to-result molecular diagnostics can provide several key advantages over other molecular and non-molecular solutions:
Fully automated, true sample-to-result system with few hands-on steps means samples can be run by any tech on any shift
Results in 90 minutes or less, and on-demand testing (no batching!) means faster time to treatment
Low-plex and multiplex testing on the same system means saved bench space

REAL-TIME PCR
Integrated and flexible research solutions for qPCR
Freshstart Medical offers real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) tests for the detection and/or quantitation of a wide range of viruses and gene mutations. Tests are highly automated, freeing up valuable resources and reducing turn-around time for lab operators.
The Sentosa SX101 is a flexible, multipurpose system for automated nucleic acid extraction and PCR set-up. Sentosa Reporter automatically analyzes results obtained from the Rotor-Gene Q thermal cycler to ensure standardization of data interpretation and concise automated reporting.
The flexibility of the qPCR platform allows for consolidated testing with a variety of sample types. The qPCR test portfolio design allows for run combinations that save time and help reduce the cost associated with generating results. The system also offers open-channel capability to meet a lab’s individual testing needs
