Neelyx can process up to 8,000 tests per day, the lab said July 11. It has also released its own CDC-compliant monkeypox PCR test.
The lab was established in 2020 as a COVID-19 testing lab.
“We have high capacity that was proven during [COVID-19], and we’ve duplicated those logistics for monkeypox testing,” CEO and lead scientist Shyam Saladi, PhD, said in a news release. “Healthcare facilities and public health departments need flexibility and capacity to process thousands of specimens in aggregate or to focus on smaller subsets of high-priority cases. We support this with fast turnaround of PCR test results within 20 minutes through existing EMR portals.”
