February 2025—BioMérieux has entered into an agreement to acquire SpinChip Diagnostics (Oslo, Norway), a privately held company that has developed an immunoassay diagnostics platform that can deliver results from a whole blood sample within 10 minutes. SpinChip is initially developing lab-quality tests to address indications common in acute care settings, such as myocardial infarction, and will first focus on high-sensitive troponin I, NT-proBNP, and D-dimer.
Under the terms of the agreement, BioMérieux will acquire 100 percent ownership of SpinChip for a total enterprise value of €138 million. BioMérieux has held a minority stake in SpinChip since March 2024.
The first product launch is expected in 2026.
