Scalable Pathogen Detection Platform
At the heart of Avicena is the Sentinel platform, an ultra-scalable rapid molecular diagnostic system.
Built around our continuous-flow LAMP technology, Sentinel delivers PCR-level accuracy with unmatched speed – processing up to 100,000 samples per day with results in under 30 minutes.a
From hospitals to airports, to rural communities and forward military bases, our instruments operate in ways conventional labs cannot.

The Avicena Sentinel instrument is intended for trained laboratory professionals to run human IVD isothermal amplification assays. Diagnostic use of the Sentinel requires IVD reagents and laboratory workflows which have been authorised by relevant regulatory agencies in each jurisdiction and by Avicena Systems as compatible with the instrument.
The Avicena Sentinel instruments are also available in configurations for research use, environmental/surveillance, animal health screening, and food safety testing.
AVICENA SENTINEL IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
Avicena Sentinel is for in vitro diagnostic use in humans and animals.
Avicena Seguro is for animal health and research use only (RUO).
