Quick Study.

Let’s get right to the point.

No one has time to wait for answers. That’s why we developed QScout® RLD (Rapid Leukocyte Differential). It reports a white blood cell and differential count at patient-side in about 2 minutes from a drop of blood. Results include immature infection-fighting cells some labs count manually. 

News that counts.

AAD mourns the loss of board chair Bob Shapiro

​​

​With sadness, AAD announced today that its chairman of the board, business leader Robert B. “Bob” Shapiro, has died at 86 following a battle with cancer.

​​

Shapiro joined AAD’s board in 2014 after the venture firm he co-founded made an investment in AAD. He became chairman in 2015. Shapiro led the board during AAD’s expansion from point-of-cow testing company Advanced Animal Diagnostics to the creation of sister company Ad Astra Diagnostics, which develops patient-side, rapid human diagnostics.

Forget the hassle.

QScout® RLD requires no lengthy machine startup time or sample prep. No wet reagents that need to be changed or disposed. No pumps. Only a drop of blood. It goes from powered off to your first result in about 3 minutes. It’s easy to use with minimal training.

See the difference.

It’s an imaging-based system not prone to the challenges of flow cytometry or the Coulter Principle. Cells are examined directly by a trained computer using AI instead of indirect measures like light scatter or electrical resistance.
