BIOFIRE®

Joint Infection (JI) Panel

The BIOFIRE JI Panel tests for a comprehensive grouping of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeast, and antimicrobial resistance genes most often associated with joint infections.

Boost My JI Testing

Conventional testing for joint infections is complex, often requiring multiple samples and days of waiting for results. The BIOFIRE JI Panel is a rapid syndromic test that delivers comprehensive results in one easy-to-read report.
