I believe one of the mobile testing units is from a company by the name of CEPHEID INC
Cepheid is a developer, manufacturer and marketer of fully integrated systems that automate and accelerate biological testing. Based on microfluidic and microelectronic technologies, the Company's systems analyze complex biological samples in disposable cartridges that automatically perform all of the steps that are associated with molecular biological procedures. The Company is initially focused on the detection and analysis of nucleic acids, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), in samples such as blood, urine, cell cultures, food and industrial air and water. The Company is developing two families of products, the Smart Cycler and GeneXpert families, that incorporate its core technologies. The Company's I-CORE module is a low-cost, self-contained instrument for performing and continuously monitoring chemical reactions. Each module can optically measure up to four separate reactions.
