HaystackAnalytics Launches Infexn™: First Comprehensive Diagnostic Test for Bacteria, Fungi, and RNA Viruses
15 October 2024, Bengaluru; HaystackAnalytics, a pioneer in genomics-based diagnostic solutions, is proud to announce a significant milestone in precision medicine by expanding its infexn™ test using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The existing infexn™ test using NGS which has been in use for the comprehensive detection of bacteria, fungi and AMR in a single test, has now been upgraded to also detect respiratory RNA viruses. Thus, by testing respiratory samples, such as VTM, BAL, etc. using the infexn™ – NGS test, clinicians are further enabled towards antimicrobial stewardship (AMSP), wherein they may not choose a specific test for a specific suspected infection. Instead a single infexn™ – NGS test can screen for major RNA viruses, all bacterial and fungal human pathogens, and AMR.
Infectious diseases remain a major public health concern worldwide, impacting millions of lives every day. Globally, many respiratory viruses continue to pose significant challenges. Influenza strains such as Influenza A(H1N1) and Influenza A(H3N2), along with Influenza B, Parainfluenza 3, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), and Adenovirus, are prevalent across many regions. In India, the burden of infectious diseases is particularly severe, with millions at risk daily. The country not only faces the continuing challenges posed by COVID-19 but also struggles with a high incidence of other respiratory viruses, including Influenza A(H1N1), Influenza A(H3N2), Influenza B, Parainfluenza 3, RSV, and Adenovirus. To combat this, Indian hospitals and diagnostic centers are increasingly adopting cutting-edge technologies to improve the accuracy and speed of infectious disease diagnostics. While there are very few well established antiviral treatment options, clinicians worldwide can make safer choices when supported by comprehensive diagnostic methods. The expansion of the scope of the infexn™ test using NGS, to include the detection of major respiratory RNA viruses, is a step in this direction of hypothesis free, universal infectious diseases testing paradigm.
Commenting on the development, Dr. Anirvan Chatterjee, Co-Founder, HaystackAnalytics, said, “By adding key RNA viruses to the already comprehensive NGS based infexn™ test, we continue to remain one of the world’s very few deeptech startups working towards enabling a judicious use of antibiotics and contributing towards faster and better treatment outcomes.”
Commenting on the development, Dr Mahua Dasgupta Kapoor, Director, Medical Affairs (Infectious Diseases), HaystackAnalytics, said, “We are proud to introduce this expanded capability of infexn™ using NGS, which empowers clinicians to take more precise and timely decisions, especially in the face of respiratory viral outbreaks that can further complicate bacterial or fungal infections. Our aim is to stay ahead of these evolving challenges by offering a comprehensive solution that integrates genome sequencing into everyday healthcare practices. This underscores the transformative role of genomics in India’s healthcare sector, ultimately paving the way for making it more applicable, accessible, and affordable for all.”
The next-generation sequencing test, infexn™, developed by HaystackAnalytics, is a genomics-based test capable of detecting pan-bacterial, pan-fungal, and now respiratory viral infections, along with identifying relevant rare and difficult-to-culture organisms, all within 24 hours. Developed in India and designed for global application, infexn™ using NGS emerges as the preferred test for detecting deadly infectious diseases. It holds the potential to promptly identify infections, empowering the healthcare ecosystem with advanced diagnostics to provide a customized care regime for patients. In the myriad of emerging infectious agents, infexn™ using NGS has now evolved into a versatile diagnostic tool for doctors.

World Sight Day: Titan Eye+ Launches ‘Eye Test Menu’ to Enhance Road Safety
Chandigarh, 15th October 2024: As part of its theme to make Indian roads safer, Titan Eye+, India’s leading eye care brand, has launched a drive to address a critical issue that endangers lives on the road—compromised vision among professional drivers.
This ‘World Sight Day,’ celebrated globally to raise awareness about vision impairment and the importance of eye health, Titan Eye+ acknowledges the often-overlooked eye health of those who spend most of their time on the road. As one of many initiatives, they have introduced the “Eye Test Menu,” a creative solution aimed at reaching truck drivers who are always on the move and often overlook the importance of eye care in their demanding schedules.

Since drivers may not be always keen to come for eyecare, Titan Eye+ decided to change that by bringing eye care to them.
As part of the initiative, Titan Eye+ set up eye test camps at strategic locations such as dhabas where truck drivers take their pit stops, transforming the typical experience of stopping for a meal into an opportunity for eye care. Instead of traditional food menus, the brand introduced an ‘Eye Test Menu’—an engaging way to screen drivers for vision problems. These menus, displayed on the walls, mimicked the format of an eye test. To place an order, drivers interacted with the ‘Eye Test Menu,’ which immediately highlighted their vision problems.
Commenting on the initiative, Mr. Maneesh Krishnamurthy, Marketing Head, Eyecare Division, Titan Company, said, “Every year, World Sight Day is an opportunity for Titan Eye+ to draw attention to eyecare. This year we have taken the theme “Make Indian Roads Safe” and our roads are only as safe as the people who drive on them.
The ‘Eye Test Menu’ film created with the team at Ogilvy is an innovation we’re particularly proud of because it doesn’t just offer eye tests—it reaches people where they are and in a manner that catches their attention, shaking the apathy out of vision care.”
The eye test camps featured on-the-spot free eye exams conducted by expert optometrists at these dhabas. Drivers diagnosed with vision issues were prescribed corrective spectacles, with a range of styles to choose from, which were then shipped to their home addresses at subsidized prices.
Make Indian Roads Safe has not only brought essential eye care to the community but has already reached over 7,000 drivers and continues to expand its impact. Expanding the scope of the initiative, Titan Eye+ works closely with platforms like Namma Yatri and others to offer free eye tests to delivery partners, rickshaw drivers, and cab drivers—all critical members of the transportation ecosystem.
Studies show that 1 in 3 truck drivers in India suffer from poor vision, a condition that severely compromises their ability to drive safely. According to statistics, India’s roads witness a startling number of accidents involving large vehicles, with over 25,000 crashes (Ministry of road transport and highway, 2022) and more than 10,000 fatalities (Ministry of road transport and highway, 2022) attributed to trucks and lorries in recent years. Despite the risks involved, many drivers tend to overlook eye care, viewing it as a low priority. This initiative reflects Titan Eye+’s desire to increase awareness about eyecare amongst various communities and create lasting impact.
