What is the BD MAX Molecular Detection System?
The BD MAX System is a fully integrated, automated platform that performs nucleic acid extraction and real-time PCR, providing results for up to 24 samples across multiple syndromes in approximately 3 hours, per official BD documentation. A broad and expanding suite of assays covers enteric infections, healthcare-associated infections (MRSA XT, StaphSR, CPO), women’s health and respiratory panels, while open-system reagents let laboratories design and run their own assays — redefining staff productivity with one standardized workflow.
What is it used for?
Clinical microbiology and molecular laboratories running syndromic infectious disease panels.
Key features
- Up to 24 samples per run, ~3 hours
- Automated extraction + real-time PCR in one platform
- Enteric, HAI, STI and respiratory assay panels
- Open System Reagents for user-designed assays
- Standardized workflow and protocols
