Targets of the GF Panel are Chikungunya virus, CCHF virus, dengue virus (serotypes 1-4), Ebolavirus, Lassa virus, Marburgvirus, West Nile virus, Yellow fever virus, Zika virus, Bacillus anthracis, Francisella tularensis, Leptospira spp., Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Paratyphi A, Yersinia pestis, Leishmania donovani complex, Plasmodium spp., P. falciparum, and P. ovale/vivax. BioFire Defense is conducting a prospective clinical study to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the GF Panel when used to test blood collected from subjects with fever or who have recently had fever. This multi-center study is being conducted at locations around the world.
