Universal Infectious Diseases Test (UID)
A Revolutionary Technology to Aid the Clinician
Sepsis is the body's extreme response to an infection and is potentially life-threatening. This occurs when a pre-existing infection
triggers a chain reaction throughout your body, often leading to shock, disability, multi organ failure, or even death.
UID Test is an NGS based culture-free test to identify causative pathogen in a quick turn around time
Comprehensive single screening test covering bacteria and fungi
Identifies drug resistance based on Antibiotic Resistance Gene (ARG) profile
Hands on time < 4 hours
Tests for ID | Turn Around Time | Pathogen Coverage | Antibiotic Coverage | Additional Information |
---|---|---|---|---|
12 hours | >1200 pathogens | ARGs | Species and Genus identification | |
2-10 Days | Culturable bacteria and fungi | Selected Panel | ||
12-24 Hours | Up to 43 pathogens | 1-5 Antibiotics | Upgradation of technology on existing set up is not possible or is very difficult |

Public Health: Tech a formidable ally against TB
Tuberculosis (TB) is one of India’s foremost public health problems. As per World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates, India has the highest burden of TB in the world. In 2021, the country witnessed a 19% upsurge in TB cases over the previous year. Despite having an aggressive TB control programme in place, drug resistance has led to the country witnessing a sharp increase in the number of cases over the last decade. By recent estimates, 75% of drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) cases remain undiagnosed, with such patients actively transmitting the disease. Diagnosing DR-TB at an early stage is a major challenge, as it can take up to three months to detect it using existing approaches. This is where genome sequencing comes in, as it enables early and accurate diagnosis of such diseases and helps cut the costs of diagnosis and therapy.
