RightBio Metrics gastric pH indicators

January 2025—RightBio Metrics has announced the availability of its RightSpot Gastric pH Indicators. The FDA-cleared, CLIA-waived product uses pH to confirm gastric acidity for tubes intended to end in the stomach. Other than an x-ray, the primary identifier of a properly placed nasogastric or orogastric tube tip, RightBio says, is a pH reading of 5.5 or less. Each indicator is individually packaged in high-density copolymer foil with proprietary surface treatment to prevent air, light, and humidity from penetrating and can be stored at temperatures between -40°C and 52°C.

Roche gets CE mark for Cobas Mass Spec solution

January 2025—Roche announced it has received CE mark approval for its Cobas Mass Spec solution, including the Cobas i 601 analyzer and Ionify reagent pack of four assays for steroid hormones. The CE mark is the first milestone in the global launch of the Cobas Mass Spec solution, Roche said in a press statement. Following the launch, the company will roll out a menu of more than 60 analytes for testing of steroid hormones, vitamin D metabolites, and immunosuppressant drugs, as well as for therapeutic drug monitoring and drugs of abuse testing.

UllCore BSI test gets breakthrough device designation

January 2025—Deepull announced it has received breakthrough device designation from the FDA for its UllCore bloodstream infection test. The test detects 95 percent of pathogens associated with bloodstream infections that may lead to sepsis, as well as select genetic determinants of antimicrobial resistance, and has a turnaround time of one hour. The real-time multiplex PCR system extracts and analyzes total microbial DNA from 8 mL of whole blood.

Thermo Fisher, Mainz Biomed to develop a next-gen CRC screening test

January 2025—Mainz Biomed, a Germany-based molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in cancer diagnostics, announced a collaborative agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific, through its subsidiary Life Technologies Corp. The companies will jointly develop and potentially commercialize Mainz Biomed’s next-generation colorectal cancer screening product. The test targets the early detection of colorectal cancer and focuses on precancerous lesions, particularly advanced adenomas.

Thermo Fisher gets clearance for TaqPath COVID-19 PCR kit

January 2025—Thermo Fisher Scientific has received FDA 510(k) clearance for the Applied BioSystems TaqPath COVID-19 diagnostic PCR kit. The kit was first introduced as an EUA test; the 510(k) clearance allows clinical and public health laboratories to convert to an in vitro diagnostic workflow. The kit is intended for use with nasopharyngeal and anterior nasal swab samples and includes assays and controls for the real-time PCR detection of RNA from SARS-CoV-2 emerging virus.

BD, Babson expand access to fingertip blood testing

January 2025—BD and Babson Diagnostics announced an expansion of fingertip blood collection and testing technologies for use by U.S. health systems and other large provider networks in settings like urgent cares, doctors’ offices, and other ambulatory care settings. The blood testing process integrates BD’s MiniDraw capillary blood collection system with Babson’s BetterWay technologies to enable test results from as few as six drops of capillary blood collected from a patient’s finger. Samples can be collected and prepared by any trained health care worker, including those without prior phlebotomy experience.
