Rapid DNA Solutions for Crime Laboratories

 

With the compact, easy-to-use Applied Biosystems RapidHIT ID System, forensic laboratories, globally, are expanding their capabilities and partnering with law enforcement, medical examiners, and others to more quickly triage samples, generate leads early in the investigative process, identify the unknown, and automatically enroll and search qualifying arrestees' DNA profiles against forensic DNA databases while a suspect is still in custody. Let us equip you to do what you do best - even better.


Rapid DNA, answers that you can trust, only faster

 
  • FBI NDIS-approved rapid DNA system 
  • Lab-quality forensic DNA profiles in as little as 90 minutes with 1 minute of hands-on time
  • Widely used chemistries generate results compatible with established DNA databases
  • Expert system capable software offers full control of DNA results with powerful sample matching, familial search, kinship, and staff elimination applications
  • Enables rapid processing and identifications of crime scene evidence, human remains, and family references—in the lab or in the field

Sample cartridges enable a fully automated workflow

Self-contained sample cartridges transform a multicomponent protocol into a single, user-initiated task

  • RFID technology automatically initiates optimized run and analysis protocols and tracks consumable and run information. Standardized algorithms generate reproducible STR profiles within a closed system.
  • Single sample cartridges eliminate the need to batch samples, minimize storage and waste needs, and reduce per sample costs
  • Processed samples can be recovered from the sample cartridge, enabling retesting with the same system or traditional laboratory methods
Two types of sample cartridges optimized for specific sample needs:
  • Applied Biosystems RapidHIT ID ACE GlobalFiler Express Sample Cartridge (for reference samples)
  • Applied Biosystems RapidINTEL Sample Cartridge (for crime scene samples)


RapidLink Software offers centralized control for rapid DNA testing

From a single view, a system administrator can confirm status of all locations contributing DNA profiles to RapidLINK for forensic review, check the number of runs per day, and reorder cartridges before consumables run out. With the activation of RapidLINK applications, the trained forensic scientist can transform DNA results into rapid intelligence.
