Cepheid announced yesterday that the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared its GeneXpert Infinity-80 System, a high-throughput automated molecular system for a wide variety of clinical testing applications. The system has been initially cleared in conjunction with Cepheid’s Xpert Flu test.

In every configuration, the system is designed to adapt to any workflow requirement on-demand, batch, or STAT testing.
