Siemens SARS-CoV-2 test evaluated in PHE study
September 2020—Public Health England evaluated four commercial immunoassay tests used for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and available in the United Kingdom.
Thursday, May 28, 2026, 1:00–2:00 PM ET
This session is designed to improve understanding and application of recent updates to synoptic pathology reporting protocols such as the latest Reporting Template for Reporting Results of Biomarker Testing of Specimens from Patients with Carcinoma of the Breast. These changes reflect evolving clinical guidelines that directly influence diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection in breast cancer care.
Webinar presenters Thaer Khoury, MD, FCAP, Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Cente, and Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive.
Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

September 2020—Public Health England evaluated four commercial immunoassay tests used for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and available in the United Kingdom.
September 2020—GenMark Diagnostics announced that its ePlex Respiratory Pathogen 2 Panel is available for U.S. commercial distribution and clinical use.
September 2020—EliTechGroup launched its Aerospray Cytology Slide Stainer Cytocentrifuge, which automates the preparation and staining of liquid-based cytology specimens to facilitate the examination of an array of cell differentiations using Papanicolaou staining techniques. The device performs two functions of sample preparation through cytocentrifugation and sample staining. It maximizes cell recovery to the slide through the use of its Cytopro Rotor, eliminates cross-contamination with an application of fresh stain for each slide, and provides programmable regressive and progressive staining capabilities that can be stored in memory.
September 2020—Oxford Gene Technology, a Sysmex Group company, announced that Sysmex sales and support services are now available in China and Spain for Cytocell customers. The expansion involves Sysmex Shanghai, Sysmex Hong Kong, and Sysmex Espana.
September 2020—DiaSorin Molecular announced that its Simplexa Flu A/B & RSV Direct Gen II kit has received the CE mark. The kit delivers continued comprehensive strain coverage and accurate detection in a sample-to-answer format that does not require extraction.
September 2020—Diaceutics announced two partnerships, with Targos Molecular Pathology and HistoCyte Laboratories, on its DXRX platform, an end-to-end solution for the development and commercialization of precision medicine diagnostics.
September 2020—Diazyme Laboratories received FDA emergency use authorization for the Diazyme DZ-Lite SARS-CoV-2 IgG CLIA test.
September 2020—NeuMoDx Molecular has received the CE mark for its NeuMoDx HPV Assay, a fully automated, in vitro real-time PCR-based assay for the qualitative detection of high-risk types of human papillomavirus DNA in cervical specimens. It specifically identifies HPV 16 and 18 while concurrently detecting 13 other common high-risk types at clinically relevant infection levels.
September 2020—Integrated DNA Technologies and Sherlock Biosciences have entered into a strategic collaboration to enable large-scale manufacturing of the Sherlock CRISPR SARS-CoV-2 kit for the detection of COVID-19. IDT will supply several components, including the Cas13a enzyme, on which the test is based, as well as a CRISPR RNA and primer mix.
September 2020—Qiagen has launched the QIAseq SARS-CoV-2 Primer Panel for next-generation sequencing of the novel coronavirus genome and integrated analysis and interpretation workflows for insights into the evolution and spread of the virus.
