Multicenter Evaluation of BioFire FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 for Detection of Viruses and Bacteria in Nasopharyngeal Swab Samples 2018-05-25 .txt text/plain 4724 240 46 The FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) was first introduced as a syndromic multiplex molecular test in 2011 for the detection of 15 viruses; additional viral analytes and bacteria were made available with a software update in 2012 after FDA clearance for these new indications. To this end, BioFire Diagnostics has updated the FilmArray RP product again by adding new assays to broaden the test's detection capabilities (particularly for adenoviruses), modifying a subset of assays to reflect newly available genetic sequences of currently included analytes, improving chemistry to enhance sensitivity overall, and for the inclusion of new analytes. MERS-CoV was not circulating in the United States during the time of the study; therefore, all specimens were assumed to be negative, and no comparator testing was performed for this analyte. Additional discrepant analysis for these specimens included retesting with the FilmArray RP2, a combination of PCR assays as described above, and any available NCH LDT results for adenovirus. ./cache/cord-293583-qec57cid.txt ./txt/cord-293583-qec57cid.txt
