December 2015—Thermo Scientific’s DRI Hydrocodone Assay received FDA 510(k) clearance; it also has the requisite sensitivities to meet the newly proposed Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration guidelines (using a 300 ng/mL cutoff). SAMHSA oversees the testing of federally regulated employees, and many organizations follow the guidelines set forth by this agency.
December 2015—Dako announced FDA approval of a test that can identify PD-L1 expression levels on the surface of non-small cell lung cancer tumor cells and provide information on the survival benefit with Opdivo (nivolumab) for patients with nonsquamous NSCLC.
December 2015—Diagnostica Stago launched its next-generation ecarin-based chromogenic assay for dabigatran, STA-ECA II. Fully automated with barcoded loading on Stago’s high throughput analyzers, STA-ECA II enables laboratories to measure dabigatran (Pradaxa) in plasma samples and is insensitive to lupus anticoagulants and heparin along with coagulation factor and fibrinogen levels.
December 2015—Inova Diagnostics announced the FDA clearance of Quanta Flash CCP3, an assay that aids in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. The fully automated chemiluminescent assay, which has demonstrated excellent clinical performance in large cohorts of RA and disease control patients, uses a third-generation cyclic citrullinated peptide technology from Inova Diagnostics.
December 2015—Irvine Scientific released BalanCD Transfectory CHO, a cell culture medium for rapid, scalable production of recombinant proteins through transient transfection in CHO cells. The medium is chemically defined and animal component free and is designed to support sustained, high growth with increased transfection efficiency that can yield gram-scale protein expression.
December 2015—Rheonix raised $28.6 million to further expand the company’s commercialization efforts for its molecular testing platforms, the Encompass MDx and Encompass Optimum.
November 2015—Quest Diagnostics announced that its Focus Diagnostics products business has received 510(k) clearance to add the genital swab claim to its Simplexa HSV 1 and 2 Direct molecular test on the 3M Integrated Cycler.
November 2015—MDxHealth announced the commercial launch of its noninvasive, urine-based test, SelectMDx for prostate cancer, in Europe via the company’s laboratory facilities in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
November 2015—Affymetrix and Luminex announced a distribution agreement under which eBioscience, a business unit of Affymetrix, will sell Luminex’s Magpix, Luminex 200, and Flexmap 3D multiplexed assay platforms in specified countries in the Americas, Asia, and Europe.
November 2015—Sarstedt introduced Lumox x-well cell culture chambers with a 50 µm ultrathin, gas-permeable film base that combines excellent imaging with superior cell growth. Compared with plastic or glass bases, the gas-permeable Lumox film provides more effective gas exchange and homogeneous cell growth.
