MiQLab for Veterinary Diagnostics
Gain insight and remove uncertainty sooner with sample-to-answer in-clinic testing. When critical answers matter, rely on POC molecular testing to improve the diagnostic and treatment process for better patient care.
Overview
LexaGene’s MiQLab™ rapid point-of-care pathogen detection system accelerates diagnostic testing to enable evidence-based treatment decisions in the veterinary medicine setting.
Bringing Rapid Molecular Testing to Point-of-Care
LexaGene’s MiQLab™ for Veterinary Diagnostics System is fully automated for use in veterinary hospitals and clinics at point-of-care to provide reliable molecular testing results in significantly less time.
MiQLab enables veterinarians to rapidly identify infectious pathogens and antibiotic resistance factors in cats and dogs, providing comprehensive and actionable insights to boost confidence in initial diagnoses and prescribed therapies.
The MiQLab system uses real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to simultaneously screen for up to 27 targets with high sensitivity and specificity and return results in ~2 hours.
The system is designed to expand with your needs—its open-access feature enables additional test panels to be incorporated.
MiQLab Bacterial and AMR Test
Enabling Evidence-based Treatment Decisions
The MiQLab Bacterial and AMR Test allows veterinary health practitioners to test cats and dogs for common bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance markers, providing actionable results in approximately two hours using a single clinical sample.

Features and Benefits
Multiplex Detection
Simultaneously detect up to 27 pathogens and other molecular markers by real-time PCR.
Intuitive Navigation
Integrated barcode reader and convenient touchscreen simplifies data entry and results viewing.
Easy Workflow
Simply add patient sample to cartridge and load it onto MiQLab with <1 min hands-on time.
Rapid Turnaround
Sample-to-answer in approximately 2 hours vs. waiting days for traditional culture and sensitivity test results.
Automated Reporting
Wireless transfer PDF report to mobile devices, computers, and record-keeping system.
Expandable Test Menu
Designed to support growing menu of MiQLab rapid molecular tests.
MiQLab Sample-to-Answer Workflow
MiQLab can be operated by any user in emergency hospitals and veterinary practices where samples are collected. With less than one minute of hands-on time, users can initialize walk-away testing at the touch of a button. Reliable results are available in approximately two hours.
MiQLab Technology
This all-in-one automated system seamlessly integrates nucleic acid extraction and purification, target amplification, detection, and reporting. It is easy to operate with a simple sample-to-answer workflow.
LexaGene’s MiQLab returns a molecular analysis on specimens in a fraction of the time it takes for culture to return results. As a result, veterinarians using MiQLab can rule-out, or rule-in, infection and therefore offer pet owners evidence-based treatment decisions for their pets on the same day of the clinical appointment.
Dr. Shelley Rankin Chief of Clinical Microbiology and Professor of Microbiology, University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary MedicineLexaGene’s technology will be a game changer for veterinary care. Having this capability to rapidly diagnose a patient—and get information on antibiotic resistance—while they are still in our facility rather than waiting days for a reference laboratory generated result will allow us to improve our quality of care dramatically.
