Recently, Epiprobe’s independently developed Gong Yi’an® PCDHGB7 gene methylation detection kit (PCR-fluorescent probe method) has been approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and obtained a Class III medical device registration certificate (registration certificate number: National Medical Device Registration No. 20253401308). This is currently the first Class III methylation detection kit that does not require bisulfite treatment. Its advent will undoubtedly be a new tool for medical technology departments to reduce costs and increase efficiency!
How does Gong Yi’an® set off an efficiency revolution in medical technology departments? Let’s take a look at the technical principles first, and everyone will understand it in seconds! Compared with the methylation detection of the bisulfite method, the methylation detection based on the methylation-sensitive restriction endonuclease method does not require bisulfite treatment after nucleic acid extraction. It only needs to add the DNA template to the PCR reaction system containing the methylation-sensitive restriction endonuclease, and then directly incubate and PCR reaction on the PCR instrument, truly realizing the one-tube operation!
The above characteristics of Gong Yian® Enzyme Digestion Kit bring two benefits to the medical technology department: first, it reduces two steps of manual operation, and the repeatability and stability of the test results are higher, avoiding errors caused by manual operation and unnecessary rework; second, it saves 4.5 hours of work time, and the saved work time can be used to carry out other projects, which can reduce costs and increase revenue, killing two birds with one stone!
After understanding the principle and clinical advantages of Epiprobe’s Gong Yi’an® Enzyme Digestion Kit, I believe that you are more concerned about its actual strength in reducing costs and increasing efficiency in medical and technical departments. Is there any specific data to support it? The answer is of course yes! Next, let us use real data to show you the hard-core strength of Gong Yi’an®!
In the case of full-load sample testing, Gong Yi’an® Enzyme Digestion Kit can bring 3 times the revenue to medical and technical departments. The calculation is as follows: According to the eight-hour work system, one person operates a qPCR instrument, and Gong Yi’an® Enzyme Digestion Kit can detect 282 samples (excluding controls) in one day; while the bisulfite method kit can detect up to 94 samples (excluding controls) in one day.
We learned from a cooperating hospital that the hospital has 40 cervical cancer methylation test samples every day. The Gong Yi’an® enzyme digestion kit only takes 4.17 hours to complete the test, of which the labor time is 2.17 hours, which can reduce the labor time of the bisulfite method kit by 65%. If it is used to carry out the HPV typing test in the hospital, it will bring nearly 2 million yuan in additional revenue to the hospital every year.
Dear readers, do these data make you see the new possibility of upgrading the efficiency of medical and technical departments? There is no doubt that from the 3-fold increase in the daily test volume to the potential for nearly 2 million yuan in annual revenue increase, the Gong Yi’an® enzyme digestion kit has proved its value with hard power – this is not only a simplification of the test process, but also a breakthrough change in reducing costs and increasing efficiency in medical and technical departments. If you are troubled by the time-consuming and high cost of traditional testing, you may wish to contact us and we will provide you with exclusive solutions. Let data drive decision-making and rewrite efficiency with innovation. I believe that after cooperation, you will also be amazed at the disruptive changes brought about by the “bisulfite-free” technology!
