Obsolescence Information:

bioMérieux has begun the obsolescence process for the BIOFIRE 2.0 System. Sales have been discontinued as of December 31, 2023, and we will no longer support reagent utilization on the BIOFIRE 2.0 System after January 10, 2029.

Any technical complaint involving a pouch run on a BIOFIRE 2.0 System will still be registered; however, bioMérieux will no longer provide corrective solutions or technical answers for these complaints.

We encourage your to upgrade to the BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® TORCH System which is built on proven technology and is fully compatible with the same panels used on the BIOFIRE 2.0 System.

The BIOFIRE FILMARRAY 2.0 System – How It Works

The BIOFIRE 2.0 System offers unmatched ease-of-use with just two minutes of hands-on time and results in about an hour. Training is minimal and the software walks you through the entire molecular testing process.

  • Increased Speed and Cost Efficiency: The BIOFIRE System delivers actionable answers in about an hour. Faster results may lead to shorter length of stay, may reduce downstream diagnostic testing, may improve antibiotic stewardship, and may improve infection control—all of which may lead to better patient satisfaction.
  • User-Friendly Multiplex PCR: Any tech on any shift can use the BIOFIRE System, which requires minimal training and hands-on time to help optimize laboratory productivity 24/7.
  • The Most Comprehensive Target Menu on the Market: One test on the BIOFIRE System simultaneously targets the most likely causes of infection, empowering clinicians to choose the right test, the first time. Results are pathogen-specific, clinically relevant, and can lead to more informed patient management decisions.
