POC Test

Seinda’s series of point-of-care testing solutions:
– Ocular Inflammation (MMP9-POC Test)
– Dry eye (LTA-POC Test)
– Allergy (IgE-POC Test)
– IL6-POC Test and IL8-POC Test (Launching in 2026)

All tests benefits:

Fast Turnaround: Quantitative results within 10–15 minutes at the point of care.

High Sensitivity: Accurately detects tear IgE levels, even at low concentrations, allowing for early identification of allergic responses.

Small Sample Volume: Requires only 1–2 µL of tear fluid, ensuring patient comfort and efficient workflow.

Barcode-Linked Protocol: Each cassette includes a unique barcode, allowing the analyzer to automatically select the correct test settings—no manual calibration or software updates required.

Integrated Safety and Quality Control: Built-in validation and system checks ensure test reliability and reproducibility across every clinical setting.

Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is an enzyme linked to the breakdown of corneal epithelial barrier function and inflammation in DED. MMP-9 is a critical biomarker associated with ocular surface inflammation in Dry Eye Disease (DED). Elevated levels are associated with more severe disease and poorer ocular surface health.

Used with the i-ImmunDx™ Analyzer, the MMP-9-POC test is a quantitative point-of-care assay designed to detect Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in tear fluid. The test provides clinicians with a rapid and objective tool to assess inflammatory status, improving diagnostic precision and treatment guidance.

MMP9-POC Clinical Applications:

  • DED Subtyping and Management:

          – Discriminate Inflammatory DED vs Non-inflammatory DED;

          – Treatment Selection: prescribe anti-inflammatory treatment or not and for how long;

  • Monitoring Severity and Efficacy: Severity Assessment; Efficacy Monitoring and Treatment Optimization;
  • Preoperative Management: Evaluation of ocular surface inflammation and health before and after Cataract and refractive surgery to reduce post surgical complications.

Quantifying Immune Balance in Dry Eye Disease

The LTA-POC is a rapid, quantitative immunoassay developed to measure Lymphotoxin-α (LTA) levels in human tear samples.

Utilizing Seinda’s proprietary i-ImmunDx™ Analyzer, this test provides clinicians with precise insights into ocular surface immune homeostasis, facilitating accurate diagnosis and patient stratification in dry eye disease (DED).

Clinical Significance:

LTA plays a pivotal role in maintaining ocular immune tolerance by activating regulatory T cells (Tregs) through the TNFR2 pathway. Reduced LTA levels in tears have been associated with disrupted immune homeostasis, a key factor in the pathogenesis of DED. By quantifying LTA, the LTA-POC test aids in identifying patients with immune-mediated DED, supporting personalized treatment strategies and monitoring therapeutic efficacy.

Key Features:

  • Rapid Results: Delivers quantitative measurements within 10–15 minutes at the point of care.
  • High Sensitivity and Specificity: Detects LTA concentrations as low as 1 picogram, ensuring reliable assessment of immune status.
  • Minimal Sample Requirement: Requires only 1–2 µL of tear fluid, enhancing patient comfort and ease of collection.
  • Integrated Quality Control: Each test cassette contains a unique barcode, enabling the i-ImmunDx™ Analyzer to automatically apply the correct calibration and protocol, ensuring test integrity and eliminating the need for manual updates when new tests are introduced.

Why Choose LTA-POC:

Traditional diagnostic methods for DED often lack specificity and fail to correlate with disease severity. The LTA-POC test addresses this gap by providing objective, molecular-level data on immune status, enabling clinicians to differentiate between DED subtypes and tailor interventions accordingly.

Rapid Detection of Allergic Conjunctivitis

The IgE-POC is a point-of-care diagnostic test developed to measure total Immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in tear fluid—offering a rapid, objective solution for the detection and assessment of allergic conjunctivitis.Designed for use with the i-ImmunDx™ Analyzer, this test enables clinicians to confirm allergy-related inflammation in minutes, improving diagnostic accuracy and supporting more targeted treatment decisions.

Clinical Value:

Allergic conjunctivitis can be difficult to distinguish from other forms of ocular surface inflammation based on symptoms alone. The IgE-POC test provides molecular-level confirmation, helping clinicians differentiate allergic from non-allergic causes of eye irritation and enabling more precise treatment planning—including appropriate use of antihistamines or anti-inflammatory therapies.

Key Features:

  • Fast Turnaround:
    Quantitative results available within 10–15 minutes at the point of care.
  • High Sensitivity:
    Accurately detects tear IgE levels, even at low concentrations, allowing for early identification of allergic responses.
  • Small Sample Volume:
    Requires only 1–2 µL of tear fluid, ensuring patient comfort and efficient workflow.
  • Integrated Quality Control:
    Each test cassette contains a unique barcode, enabling the i-ImmunDx™ Analyzer to automatically apply the correct calibration and protocol, ensuring test integrity and eliminating the need for manual updates when new tests are introduced.

Why Choose IgE-POC:

  • Objective confirmation of allergy-related eye disease
  • Supports differential diagnosis in multifactorial dry eye or ocular discomfort
  • Simple, quick, and deployable in routine clinical practice
