The Accula Dock is an RT-PCR platform used together with the Accula SARS-CoV-2 Test and the Accula Flu A/Flu B Test to deliver fast and convenient qualitative rapid PCR-based results in approximately 30 minutes. Both of our respiratory assay tests- SARS-CoV-2 and Flu A/Flu B, deliver RT-PCR detection in a point-of-care format.
RT-PCR testing is streamlined from start to finish using a fully integrated, single-use microfluidic test cassette and the reusable Accula Dock (up to 5,000 uses).
Features of the Accula Dock include:
- Robust design—can be used for up to 5,000 tests
- Compact design—fits in the palm of your hand; ideal fit for satellite locations and clinical settings
The palm-sized Accula Dock controls reaction temperatures, timing, and fluid movements within the Accula SARS-CoV-2 Test cassette, resulting in a fast and automated SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR assay. After approximately 30 minutes, the test results are interpreted by visualization of blue test lines on the detection strip in the test cassette. A blue process control line at the control area is used to ensure proper reagent and Accula Dock function and to confirm a valid negative test result. The simplicity of the design and display screen make for an intuitive workflow when used in conjunction with the Accula SARS-CoV-2 Test.
The Accula Dock consists of an electro-mechanical interface to a single test cassette with all electrical systems, controls, and logic necessary to orchestrate in vitro diagnostic tests within the inserted cassette. Upon insertion of a test cassette, the Accula Dock detects and identifies the cassette. After the user transfers a clinical test sample into the test cassette and closes the Accula Dock lid, embedded firmware in the dock controls fluid flow of the sample into the various chambers of the cassette, applies controlled voltage signals to the various cassette heaters (monitored by sensors within the dock), and provides visual status to the user with critical information such as estimated time to read and various error states, should they be encountered.
