SAMBA HIV Point of Care Nucleic Acid System for Resource Limited Settings

该合同的目标是为资源有限的环境开发一种快速艾滋病毒护理点诊断设备。诊断技术必须证明在资源有限的环境中和POC诊所中使用的可行性，而无需使用离心机、涡流或移液器等辅助实验室设备。此外，如果拟定的检测要求处理患者样本用于下游应用，则处理必须是独立的，并且需要有限的样本操作和潜在传染性材料的安全控制。输出应采用视觉格式，无歧义，并包括全过程阴性和内部阳性对照。

The goal of this contract is to develop a Rapid HIV point-of-care Diagnostic Device for resource-limited settings. The diagnostic technology must demonstrate feasibility for use in resource-limited settings and in POC clinics without the use of supporting laboratory equipment such as centrifuges, vortexes or pipettes. In addition, if proposed testing requires processing of patient samples for downstream applications, the processing must be self-contained and require limited sample manipulation and safe containment of potentially infectious material. The output should be in a visual format, without ambiguity, and include a full process negative and internal positive control.
