Diarrhea is often a sign of gastrointestinal infection caused by viruses, bacteria, or other pathogens. It poses significant risks not only to children but also to the elderly, immunocompromised individuals, and people in crowded or post-disaster settings. Particularly during the autumn and winter seasons, changes in temperature, increased indoor gatherings, and heightened activity of certain viruses may further elevate the incidence and transmission risks of diarrheal infections, making timely and accurate diagnosis especially critical.
Macro & Micro-Test’s Tailored Solutions for Different Diagnostic Needs
POCT Rapid Screening: The “Smart Sentinel” for Acute Care
Our AIO800 Fully Automated Sample-to Answer workflow enables results in just 30 minutes, making it ideal for rapid identification of common gastrointestinal infections. It supports real-time clinical decision-making, enabling prompt intervention and precise treatment at the point of care.

Syndromic testing facilitates tailored treatment and reduces unnecessary antibiotic use
Pathogens Covered
Viruses: Saprovirus/Norovirus GI & GII/Astrovirus/Enteric Adenovirus/Rotavirus A, B, C
