Reference materials for urine chemistry, bilirubin assays

August 2022—Verichem Laboratories now offers a range of liquid-stable and ready-to-use biosynthetic clinical reference materials for use with urine chemistry assays and designed for system calibration and calibration verification testing on a variety of clinical testing platforms, including from Abbott, Beckman Coulter, Roche, and Siemens Healthineers.

Bruker launches NMR-based long COVID test

August 2022—Bruker Corp. has launched PhenoRisk PACS RuO, a research use only nuclear magnetic resonance test for molecular phenomics research on blood samples of patients with post-acute COVID syndrome (PACS), or long COVID. The test uses a multiplexed combination of biomarkers and is for research on early-stage risk factors on longitudinal recovery monitoring and on potential secondary organ damage in cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, kidney dysfunction, and inflammation. It runs on the Avance IVDr NMR spectroscopy system, which produces results in 20 minutes.

CSF false-bottom tube

August 2022—Sarstedt announced the availability of a false-bottom tube for cerebrospinal fluid with an elevated conical base. The tube was developed and validated for Roche, specifically for use with Roche’s new generation of Elecsys immunoassays designed to detect Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers on Cobas e analyzers. The tubes are manufactured from medical-grade polypropylene and have HDPE screw caps that are leak resistant at 95 kilopascals.

CFX Duet Real-Time PCR system

August 2022—Bio-Rad Laboratories has launched the CFX Duet Real-Time PCR system to support researchers in developing singleplex and duplex quantitative PCR assays. The CFX Duet system offers the robust thermal performance and proprietary, accurate optical shuttle system of the company’s CFX Opus system. It is a two-color system that is factory calibrated for common dyes and allows the quantification of up to two targets in genotyping and multiple gene expression analyses without the need for passive reference dyes. An additional fluorescence resonance energy transfer mode supports protein melt analysis for basic protein characterization.

CE-IVD-marked TaqPath respiratory viral panel

August 2022—Thermo Fisher Scientific has launched its Applied Biosystems TaqPath Respiratory Viral Select panel. The CE-IVD-marked molecular assay panel provides results in approximately three hours and tests for adenovirus, human metapneumovirus, rhinovirus/enterovirus, and parainfluenza virus using PCR technology.
