Genie II is a compact, lightweight and robust instrument suitable for use in the field or laboratory. It was specifically designed to run any isothermal amplification method that employs target detection by fluorescence measurement. The device has two heating blocks, each of which takes a single 8-microtube strip that was specially designed for the instrument. The tubes feature locking caps that do not open after a run, so preventing any contamination. The blocks can be controlled independently or run together for processing up to 16-samples. The instrument boasts low power requirements and includes a rechargeable Lithium-Polymer battery that can keep it running for a full working day.

Genie III is now available to order. This instrument has been specifically developed for outdoor use with weather-proofing and portability the primary design objectives. This smaller “hand-held” device only has a single heating block, taking the same 8-microtube strip developed for Genie II. Just like its big brother Genie II, Genie III also incorporates a rechargeable Lithium-Polymer battery that can support operation for a complete day.

Genie ® HT was developed specifically for high-throughput environments offering diagnostic testing based on isothermal amplification methods. As with the smaller Genie ® instruments, the Genie HT can be fully controlled from its embedded touchscreen and also uses the custom 8-microtube Genie ® Strip. This system was designed to be modular and can be procured with any number of sample blocks installed up to a maximum of 12. Instruments delivered with less than 12 blocks may be upgraded at any time. The Genie ® HT offers full random access with any blocks used at any time.
