Clear Safety vs. PCR Legacy Methods

PCR
Clear Safety™
Accuracy
Higher rates of false positives and negatives
>99.9% accuracy for genus-level screening, resulting in dramatically lower rates of false positives and negatives
Pathogen Profiling
Expensive and slow speciation and serotyping
Faster and more inexpensive speciation, serotyping, and strain identification
Automation
Hands-on labor, prone to errors
Robotics that reduce labor and errors
Environmental Contamination
Environmental mapping not included
Resident/transient contamination analysis
Insights
Binary yes/no answers
AI and machine learning provide trends, environmental maps, and predictive risk assessments
