ReadyGo Diagnostics initiates volume manufacturing of its sample collection and preparation system with Porex

ReadyGo Diagnostics partners with Porex to scale up production of innovative Sampler, with applications in human and veterinary diagnostics, drug testing, and forensics.

Press Release: April 17^th, 2024, Bath, United Kingdom: ReadyGo Diagnostics Ltd. (ReadyGo™), an innovator in diagnostic solutions, is pleased to announce a strategic manufacturing partnership with Porex, a global leader in custom-engineered porous polymer solutions. This collaboration marks a vital step toward the commercial availability of ReadyGo’s cutting-edge Sampler, designed to revolutionize sample collection and preparation for a wide range of diagnostics including lateral flow, molecular, and biochemical testing.

Key Partnership Highlights:

Manufacturing Excellence: Porex will leverage its ISO 13485 manufacturing capabilities to produce and distribute the ReadyGo Sampler, aligning with ReadyGo’s vision to offer the product globally. This partnership underscores our commitment to meeting the high demand and competitive pricing in the diagnostic landscape to make the Sampler available across numerous diagnostics markets.

Revolutionary Invention: The Sampler distinguishes itself by its user-friendly design, providing a streamlined alternative to frequent swab-based sample collection protocols. It integrates sample collection and processing into a single disposable, successfully matched with various assay types such as lateral flow, molecular, immunoassays, and biochemical assays.

Precision and Effectiveness: Engineered for consistency, Porex® collection media within the Sampler enables accurate sample volumes, guaranteeing reproducible results across tests. Its incorporation of supplies and chemistries makes it a biochemistry disposable. For example, inclusion of ReadyGo’s biosafe chemistry enables instant cell lysing as sample is automatically taken up by the Sampler. This further exemplifies ReadyGo’s commitment to advancing diagnostic testing through thoughtful design and materials.

Versatile Application: Designed for both professional and legitimate testing, the Sampler is adaptable for a wide range of sample types including saliva, buccal, blood, and urine. Its versatility extends to applications in human and veterinary diagnostics, forensics, and drug testing.
