Principal activities
The OPTI Medical critical care business is focused on developing portable instruments for measurement of time-sensitive diagnostics tests, such as blood gas, electrolyte and metabolite analyses. These analyzers are primarily used in the emergency room, operating room, cardiac-monitoring area and any location where time-critical diagnostic testing is performed within the hospital setting. The OPTI analyzers utilize a sensor technology based on optical fluorescence sensors and the process of optical reflectance. The major advantages of this technology are its reliability and stability.
Enabled by IDEXX's expertise in PCR test and ELISA development and manufacturing, OPTI Medical provides accurate, easy-to-use and reliable test solutions for the detection of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and B.
