Gastrointestinal
R-Biopharm Australia provides a comprehensive range of gastrointestinal diagnostic assays designed for the rapid, reliable detection of bacterial, parasitic, helminthic, and viral pathogens. Using advanced multiplex technology, our panels streamline the identification of complex infections by combining multiple targets into a single test, reducing time and sample handling. With IVD-compliant solutions optimised for high-throughput laboratories, we deliver accuracy, efficiency, and confidence, helping clinicians diagnose and manage gastrointestinal illness with greater speed and
precision.

RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit
Skip extraction with RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit
Expedite testing of your gastrointestinal targets and skip the need for lengthy extraction protocols.
Ideal for improving daily throughput, RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit integrates seamlessly into your PCR workflow to simplify diagnostic testing.
Our streamlined workflow eliminates the need for DNA/RNA purification prior to PCR, delivering results with a rapid 20-minute protocol and minimal manual handling. Suitable for bacterial, viral, and protozoan parasite targets, it combines simple specimen processing with
efficient capture of PCR inhibitors. Automated sampling directly from RIDA®PrepX tubes, guided by MT-PCR Assay Setup software, further enhances speed and reliability.
RIDAPlex® panels are intended for in vitro diagnostics use by authorised clinical testing laboratories in Australia, New Zealand, and the European Economic Area and is included on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), and compliant with the European IVD Directive 98/79/EC. Research use only in USA.
