Cepheid

Overview

Cepheid is a prominent molecular diagnostics company based in Sunnyvale, California, founded in 1996. The company focuses on developing and marketing integrated molecular diagnostic systems and tests that simplify the detection and analysis of nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, across various sample types including blood, urine, and food.

The flagship product, the GeneXpert System, is an automated platform that combines sample preparation, DNA amplification, and detection in one instrument. It is utilized in diverse environments, including hospitals and laboratories, and supports a wide range of tests for infectious diseases, blood virology, women's health, oncology, and human genetics. Cepheid also offers the SmartCycler system and various Xpert molecular tests, including those for Group B Streptococcus and COVID-19. As a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation since 2016, Cepheid continues to enhance its global reach and innovation in molecular diagnostics, aiming to improve patient outcomes through rapid and accurate testing solutions.
