VIDAS & MINI VIDAS: PATHOGEN DETECTION
OVERVIEW
VIDAS® and MINI VIDAS® instruments are multiparametric immunoassay
systems designed to help provide the most accurate laboratory results.
With more than 3,000 food laboratories who have chosen VIDAS solutions for
their routine analyses, bioMérieux is the worldwide leader in automated
solutions for pathogen screening.
USES
•For Food Quality Control
•For Personal Care Testing
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
VIDAS® is an automated, multiparametric immunoassay system. This
uniquely designed testing device stores the calibration in the analyzer's
memory, thus optimizing the cost-per-sample result. Plus, with its ready-to-
use reagents, minimum maintenance, ease of use and uni/bi-directional
interface, labor cost is also optimized. Automation and kinetic assay
reactions yield rapid turnaround time.
MINI VIDAS® is a compact version of the VIDAS® system with a built-in
computer, keyboard and printer. Two independent sections each accept six
tests and can process up to 12 samples simultaneously.
This automated immunoassay system is reliable and economical. It uses ELFA
(Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay) Phage and immuno concentration
technology, has no carryover risks, requires a one-point recalibration once
every 14 or 28 days depending on the assay and optimizes the cost per
sample for batch or single sample testing. In addition, the menu of
available assays is constantly evolving.
The VIDAS system allows for a flexible work routine with:
•a sectioned architecture (5 sections of 6 tests each)
•an add-on modular system
•more efficient workflow
•batch testing (up to 100 tests/2 hr.)
•single sample testing
•random test capability
•multiparametric testing
•All VIDAS assays are single-dose format assays
•Everything included in one kit
•No reagent preparation – just load and go
Ease of Use
•Always ready with no startup and minimal maintenance
•Ready-to-use reagents – just load and go
Cost Effective
•Single test reaction strip
•Batch or multiple assay testing
Reliable
•Reliable system with MTBF* > 1,000 days
VIDAS & MINI VIDAS: PATHOGEN
DETECTION FEATURES & SPECS
The VIDAS® test system uses a single-dose, ready-to-use reagent strip
system
•The SPR® (Solid Phase Receptacle) is coated with antibodies, antigens and/or phage proteins.
•The Strip contains all the reagents required for the reaction.
The SPR acts as a pipetting and reagent transfer device. At each stage of the
reaction, it aspirates the reagents in and out. This original concept prevents any
inter-reagent or inter-sample contamination. In addition, the absence of tubing,
syringes and needles reduces system maintenance to a minimum.
The VIDAS system uses the ELFA assay principle, combining the ELISA test method with a
final fluorescent reading. This technology ensures excellent result sensitivity and
specificity.
