Genie II Instrument – Compact LAMP Instrument for Isothermal DNA Amplification

The Genie II is a compact, portable device designed for real-time DNA amplification using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). It enables highly sensitive and specific nucleic acid detection without the need for thermal cycling, making it ideal for point-of-care diagnostics, field-based testing, and rapid molecular workflows.

Featuring dual independent heating blocks and built-in fluorescence detection, the Genie II supports up to 16 reactions simultaneously and provides results in under 30 minutes. Whether in a clinical lab, agricultural setting, or remote environment, this device brings molecular diagnostics directly to the point of need.

Key Features:

• Real-time LAMP-based DNA amplification
• Portable, lightweight, and battery-operable
• Dual blocks: 2 x 8-well reaction capacity
• Integrated fluorescence detection with data export
