Rhinostics Revenue and Competitors

Rapid Reliable Results COVID testing has shined a light on a major bottleneck in the laboratory workflow for accessioning samples, decapping of the samples, and movement of the samples into high throughput assay workflows. Rhinostics offers a simple and elegant solution that can remove time and significant labor, allowing laboratories to move larger number of samples through their laboratories at a lower cost, lower error rates, and with time savings. Rhinostics is revolutionizing sample collection with comfortable, automatable, rapid solutions that concentrate samples that save time, costs, and improve assay sensitivity. The polypropylene anterior nares (nostril) collection device is comfortable and easy for self-collection or in the clinic. It is connected to a threaded cap that can be automatically decapped using the Hamilton Lab Elite instrument. The samples can be shipped dry (RT-PCR does not require live virus so viral transport media (VTM) is not required. The entire 96 well plate of vials can be simultaneously scanned through a 2D barcode on the bottom of the collection vial and the automated decapper robot can be connected to other liquid handling systems and linked into the high throughput assay workflow.
