Thrombin generation assay for IVIG product, 11/13

Haemtech Biopharma Services announced the successful validation of a thrombin generation assay for an intravenous immunoglobulin drug. The assay was validated in 2012 to support the use of TGA as a release assay for Biotest Pharmaceuticals’ FDA biologics license application for BIVIGAM, an immune globulin intravenous (human), 10 percent liquid product. The validated TGA assay was designed and performed on the Calibrated Automated Thrombogram platform from Diagnostica Stago.

Illumina launches TruSight One sequencing panel, 11/13

Illumina launched its TruSight One sequencing panel, which targets 4,813 genes with known associated clinical phenotypes. Clinical research laboratories can use this panel to expand existing menus, streamline workflows, or create an entire portfolio of sequencing options, with benefits including increased productivity, reduced handling errors, and decreased costs.

Breast cancer prognostic gene-signature assay, 11/13

NanoString Technologies has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Prosigna breast cancer prognostic gene signature assay. Based on the PAM50 gene signature, Prosigna is the company’s first FDA-cleared in vitro diagnostic assay and uses the gene-expression profile of cells found in breast cancer tissue to assess a patient’s risk of distant recurrence of disease. The Prosigna assay is performed using the nCounter Dx analy

FDA clears SN-TPE on Terumo system, 11/13

Terumo BCT has received FDA 510(k) clearance for single-needle therapeutic plasma exchange (SN-TPE) on its Spectra Optia apheresis system. This option gives therapeutic apheresis operators the ability to convert to SN-TPE at the beginning or at any time during the procedure, depending on patient needs.

Spray kills C. difficile spores, 11/13

Bleach-Rite Spray, manufactured by Current Technologies, has been approved by the EPA to kill Clostridium difficile spores on hard, nonporous surfaces in five-minute contact time. Bleach-Rite is a hospital-grade spray disinfectant/cleaner, ready to use at the 1:10 dilution recommended by the CDC, OSHA, and NCCLS. The solution is stabilized for an extended shelf life with an expiration date on every bottle.
