Fifty percent of people aged over 40 years suffer from periodontitis. Despite those numbers that mark periodontitis as one of the most common infectious diseases it is widely neglected. Microbial testing is well established for subgingival plaque samples. However, many dentists refrain from this method, mainly because patient samples must be sent to a specialised laboratory causing additional logistic effort and costs for the dentist. Quoting the Consensus paper (2010): Professional guidelines for microbial diagnostics of periodontitis in the dental office. The weaknesses of the currently available methods lie in the costs for the patients and in the time delay for commencing the therapy while waiting for the laboratory results. PerioPOC and the new automated PerioPOC Pro enable the dentist to obtain reliable results within a few minutes.

The COVID19 antibody test provides laboratory quality results on site within 20 minutes from just one drop of blood from the fingertip. As the test detects antibodies against 3 different  SARS-CoV 2-Antigens, it is both highly sensitive and specific. This is impressively demonstrated in a publication in the Journal of Clinical Virology in which the GENSPEED COVID-19 IgG xPOC antibody test achieves 100% sensitivity and 93% specificity with a measurement time of 20 minutes compared to 6 laboratory ELISA tests with measurement times between 2 and 4 hours!
