Pillar expands commercial partnership with Illumina

January 2025—Pillar Biosciences announced an expansion of its existing partnership with Illumina in which a broader portfolio of its OncoReveal NGS panels will be offered directly through Illumina. The additional research use only NGS panels include OncoReveal Core LBx, Essential LBx, and Fusion LBx for liquid biopsy tumor profiling and OncoReveal Multicancer RNA Fusion (18-driver gene RNA panel) and Solid Tumor v2 (48-gene DNA panel) for solid tumor profiling, for use on Illumina’s MiSeq and NextSeq 550 systems.

Qiagen launches QIAcuityDx dPCR system

January 2025—Qiagen announced the launch of the QIAcuityDx digital PCR system, an IVD medical device that integrates partitioning, thermocycling, and imaging into a streamlined five-plex workflow. The nanoplate-based workflow disperses a sample into thousands of tiny partitions and then reads reactions simultaneously to quantify signals from DNA and RNA.

StatLab launches KT brand slides, cover glass

January 2025—StatLab Medical Products has launched a self-manufactured premium slide and cover glass brand. StatLab KT slides are developed, manufactured, and sold within the StatLab group and include a nonadhesive KT1, standard adhesive KT3+, and advanced adhesive KT5+. KT portfolio slides are validated for use on the company’s PiSmart slide printers and can be used in digital pathology. KT Koverglass, made from Schott D 263M glass, offers high refractive indices and uniform dimensions, resulting in true-to-life color representation and superior clarity, the company says.

QIAstat-Dx instruments, assays get IVDR certification

January 2025—Qiagen announced that its QIAstat-Dx syndromic testing systems and associated assays have received CE marking under the European Union in vitro diagnostic medical devices regulation. The certification includes the QIAstat-Dx analyzer, QIAstat-Dx Rise, and panels for detecting gastrointestinal and respiratory illnesses. The submission for IVDR certification of the QIAstat-Dx meningitis/encephalitis panel is expected in the coming months. The company is transitioning more than 180 products to the IVDR framework.

BioFire tropical fever panel gets special 510(k) clearance

January 2025—BioMérieux announced that its BioFire Film­Array Tropical Fever panel has received FDA special 510(k) clearance. The panel is capable of testing chikungunya, dengue (serotypes 1, 2, 3, and 4), Leptospira, Plasmodium species, Plasmodium falciparum, and Plasmodium vivax/ovale and has a run time of about 50 minutes on the fully automated BioFire FilmArray 2.0 and Torch systems. Sample prep time is two minutes.

MMQCI launches BCR-ABL1, hereditary hemochromatosis controls

January 2025—Maine Molecular Quality Controls announced the launch of the Birlinn BCR-ABL1 p210 IS panel C230, intended to monitor the detection and quantification of BCR-ABL1 (p210) fusion gene using molecular test systems.
