QuidelOrtho launches certified analyzer program

October 2025—QuidelOrtho Corp. has launched a certified analyzer program designed to expand access to high-quality diagnostic testing in rural and community hospitals across the United States. The program is tailored for clinics, physician office labs, and small hospitals with fewer than 100 beds. Each analyzer in the program undergoes a robust, multipoint certification process at QuidelOrtho’s Rochester, NY, facility. It includes more than 140 system checks, functional adjustments, hardware cleaning or replacement, and extensive performance testing. The program features certified Vitros XT 7600 and 5600 integrated systems and the Vitros 3600 immunodiagnostic system. A 12-month warranty on service and support is included.

Haystack MRD ctDNA test gets breakthrough device designation

October 2025—The Food and Drug Administration has granted breakthrough device designation for Quest Diagnostic’s Haystack MRD circulating tumor DNA test. The test is used for identifying minimal residual disease in patients with stage two colorectal cancer following curative-intent surgical treatment who may benefit from adjuvant therapy in accordance with therapeutic product labeling.

FDA clears assay to detect CTX-M enzymes

October 2025—The FDA has cleared Hardy Diagnostics’ NG-Test CTX-M Multi, an in vitro diagnostic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of CTX-M enzymes (groups 1, 2, 8, 9, and 25) from pure colonies of Enterobacterales suspected of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase production. These enzymes confer resistance to many beta-lactam antibiotics, making infections more difficult to treat. The test delivers results in 15 minutes.

Roche mass spec test categorized as moderate complexity

October 2025—The Food and Drug Administration has categorized Roche’s Ionify 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D total assay as moderate complexity under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988. Roche reported that this is the first time a mass-spectrometry-based test has achieved this designation.

October 2025—Eppendorf has launched the Eppendorf Research 3 Neo mechanical pipette. Users can choose between two volume settings and speeds. The pipette can be adjusted for different liquid types, tip geometries, and reverse pipetting and a volume lock feature prevents unintentional volume changes. The use of ColorTag marking rings provides color-coded identification.

C2N launches RUO blood tests for Alzheimer’s disease

September 2025—C2N Diagnostics has launched two plasma assays for research use only. C2N eMTBR-tau243 (endogenous microtubule binding region) is a blood test that selectively detects a specific region of tau; this fragment has been shown to closely track insoluble tau aggregates within neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer’s disease. The assay builds on the existing C2N eMTBR-tau243 test in cerebrospinal fluid launched by the company nearly two years ago. C2N obtained exclusive rights for these technologies from the Bateman Lab at WashU Medicine, St. Louis, Mo. The company plans to integrate the new plasma C2N eMTBR-tau243 assay into clinical routine in the future.

FDA approves Oncomine Dx Express for Zegfrovy

September 2025—The FDA has approved Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Oncomine Dx Express test, an in vitro diagnostic assay, for use as a companion diagnostic for Dizal’s Zegfrovy (sunvozertinib) to identify patients with non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations. In addition, the test has been approved for tumor profiling in solid tumors and detects cancer mutations with evidence of clinical significance and potential clinical significance across 46 genes.

Bruker MALDI Biotyper systems awarded ACT label
