Global healthcare is demanding cheaper, faster diagnostics. By utilizing customized assay chemistry (like TRF) rather than stacking expensive optical bandpass filters, modern Chinese POCT manufacturers have reduced the BOM of optical detection modules by up to 90%.
Furthermore, combining these advanced optics with microfluidic PCR cartridges allows for rapid thermal cycling without massive heatsinks or complex robotics. The result? A compact, highly accurate Point of Care Testing (POCT) device that costs a fraction of traditional lab equipment.
