Overview of PaRTI-Seq™ Technology
PaRTI-Seq™ is a comprehensive solution for rapid pathogen identification developed by Micronbrane. It integrates the Devin™ filter, optimized sample preparation for next-generation sequencing (NGS), and proprietary analytical methods to deliver precise test results within 24 hours.
Core Technology: Devin™ Filter
The Devin™ filter is a disposable blood fractionation filter designed for clinical microbiology. It enables faster, more accurate, and cost-effective pathogen detection in human blood, facilitating further analyses such as genetic tests, virology, and immunology. The filter uses Zwitterionic Interface Ultra-Self-assemble Coating (ZISC) technology to deplete human nucleated cells while allowing microorganisms to pass through intact.
Advantages of Devin™ Filter
  • Reduces host DNA interference, which constitutes the largest portion of sequencing costs, by up to 75%.
  • Processes samples in less than 5 minutes with over 99% leukocyte depletion.
  • Enhances microbial sequencing reads ratio compared to other depletion methods.
Comparison with Traditional Methods
Traditional blood culture methods detect pathogens in only 20-30% of cases and have long turnaround times (2-7 days). Molecular tests like PCR are limited to predefined pathogens and require specialized kits. In contrast, PaRTI-Seq™ avoids host interference, requires fewer sequencing reads, and can detect even small amounts of microorganisms with high sensitivity.
PaRTI-Seq™ Workflow and Components
  • Devin™ DNA Microbial Enrichment Kit
  • Unison™ Ultralow DNA NGS Library Preparation Kit
  • PaRTI-Cular™ Analysis Software
The workflow includes sample processing, library preparation, sequencing, and data analysis, with a final report available in less than 24 hours.
Performance Metrics
  • Over 99% depletion of human nucleated cells in 5 minutes.
  • Microbial enrichment increased by 10-1000 fold.
  • Compatible with various sequencing platforms and PCR methods.
Conclusion
PaRTI-Seq™ offers an accelerated, affordable, and automatable solution for pathogen identification, with significant cost savings and improved accuracy over traditional methods.

Blood culture test has multiple drawbacks for clinical application (some microorganisms are unculturable or hard to culture eg: Treponema pallidum, Bartonella spp. or take weeks to culture eg: mycobacteria and molds) Molecular tests like PCR can only detect predefined specific pathogens and require specialized kits and primers PaRTI-Seq™ allows to avoid host interference by patent technology and requires 4x less sequencing reads than other mNGS tests. It can detect even tiny amount of microorganisms (sensitivity 102 genome copies/ml) Core technology of PaRTI-Seq™ — filter Devin™ Devin™ is a disposable blood fractionation filter invented for wide use in clinical microbiology. It enables faster more accurate and cost effective way to detect pathogens in human blood for further , analysis such as genetic tests (DNA sequencing, PCR etc.), virology, immunology and other applications. ZISC Technology >99% pathogens output Before Microbial enrichment fluids, such as whole blood, plasma, CSF, BALF etc. It utilizes a patent technology of Zwitterionic Interface Ultra-Self-assemble Coating (ZISC) which allows to deplete human nucleated cells from the sample (Fig. 1) while allowing most of microorganisms (including bacteria, viruses, fungi etc.) to go through the filter intact (Fig. 2). Devin™ effectively removes host DNA interference from body In comparison with other depletion methods ( ig. (less than 3) Devin™ shows much faster processing time 5 minutes) and greater ratio of microbial sequencing reads.
