the diagnostic

SalivIQ™ Strep A

A saliva-based molecular diagnostic test that detects group A Streptococcus using next-generation quantitative PCR. Results in as little as 22 minutes, with no throat swab and no follow-up culture.

A patient provides a saliva sample into a collection tube

01

Collect saliva

The patient provides a small saliva sample. There is no swab, no gagging, and no collection technique to get right, which matters most with children.

02

Amplify and read

The sample runs on compact next-generation qPCR. Group A Streptococcus DNA is either detected or it is not, and the result is available in as little as 22 minutes.

why it works

Accurate because of the chemistry, not the technique

Detects bacterial DNA at very low concentrations
Molecular accuracy

Saliva samples bacteria from across the mouth, not one spot

A better sample

Next-generation qPCR keeps molecular accuracy while running in minutes on compact equipment that needs no specialised training and no reference laboratory.
