Invasive Candidiasis is the most common fungal disease among hospitalised patients in the developed world, with candidaemia often cited as the fourth most common bloodstream infection within intensive care units. CandID® is a multiplex PCR test designed to detect genomic DNA of 3 commonly isolated Candida species; C. albicans, C. glabrata and C. parapsilosis.

Candida auris, a new strain of the genus Candida, is a globally emerging multidrug resistant pathogen causing nosocomial transmission. Since it was first isolated in 2009, C. auris has been associated with bloodstream and wound infections globally and has caused hospital outbreaks in several countries. C. auris is commonly resistant to the first-line antifungal drug Fluconazole, and multidrug resistant strains have been reported. AurisID® rapidly detects Candida auris within 45 minutes of nucleic acid extraction.

A rapid immunochromatography test for the qualitative detection of Aspergillusdiagnostic antigen in human serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; for use as an aid in the assessment and evaluation of patients with suspected invasive pulmonary Aspergillosis (IPA).
The AspLFD uses a monoclonal Ab that detects antigenic mannoproteins produced by the fungus during active growth and can be used to detect the Aspergillus diagnostic antigen in human serum and BAL fluids.
