Qnostics Controls by Randox Laboratories

Randox Laboratories is committed to continually improving health worldwide through the use of their revolutionary products and solutions. Their comprehensive portfolio is designed to provide efficient, high quality and reliable diagnostics in the widest variety of laboratory settings. In 2020 Randox launched a novel molecular assay for the simultaneous detection of SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) and nine other respiratory pathogens. The company’s diverse product offering also includes third party quality control, the world’s largest EQA scheme, high quality biochemistry reagents, clinical analysers and an extensive range of molecular diagnostic solutions.

Qnostics by Randox Laboratories specializes in developing and manufacturing of molecular controls for testing for infectious diseases. Qnostics is a leading provider within the standard procedures of today's molecular laboratory and nucleic acid testing (NAT) tests. The range includes hundreds of viral, bacterial and fungicidal targets from various diseases. The spectrum of diseases includes among others transplant-related diseases of the respiratory tract or sexually transmitted infections, gastrointestinal infections and diseases of the central nervous system. As a provider of complete QC solutions, the products can be used for daily monitoring of the assay performance, linearity evaluation, assay evaluation, validation and verification of new assays.

Evaluation Panels

The Evaluation Panels are used to validate and verify test parameters of a molecular method. The suitability for use is also determined. The molecular assay properties are evaluated for sensitivity, specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy and reporting range. Developed to confirm performance claims and suitability for laboratory testing requirements, the evaluation panels may be calibrated against an international WHO standard or internal reference material (quantified by digital PCR).

Analytical Q-Panels

Analytical Q-Panels cover the dynamic range of an assay so that laboratories can assess the linearity, LOD and LOQ of their assay. Each panel contains samples that cover the dynamic range of most assays in a linear course. All samples are treated like patient samples within one assay run.

Qnostics Molecular Q-Panels

Qnostics' Molecular Q-Panels are designed to help laboratories evaluate the analytical measurement parameters of their assays and monitor molecular diagnostic assay procedures. The panels can also be used to support laboratory training and to evaluate and develop molecular diagnostic assays from the extraction phase to amplification and detection.

Qnostics Q-Controls

Qnostics Q-Controls are positive-run controls designed to help laboratories monitor their molecular diagnostic assay from run to run within the limits set by the customer. These independent third-party controls ensure that the assay drift is detected, monitored and managed so that the laboratory can continue to deliver accurate and reliable results.

Qnostics offers state-of-the-art molecular controls to IVD manufacturers, clinical research organizations and clinical molecular diagnostic end users. Qnostics has an international reputation as a leading provider of customized molecular control solutions that are tailored to the specific needs of the customer.
