Olympus, Ultivue comarketing agreement

February 2020—Olympus and Ultivue, a developer of tissue biomarker identification and quantification assays for translational research, have entered into a comarketing agreement. The partnership will provide a solution for fluorescent multiplexing by combining the Olympus Slideview VS200 automated slide scanner with Ultivue’s proprietary InSituPlex DNA barcoding and staining technology to provide quantitative colocalization analysis in fluorescent whole slide images.

SeraCare launches TMB reference materials

February 2020—SeraCare Life Sciences launched genomic DNA and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded reference materials for tumor mutational burden measurement by next-generation sequencing assays. SeraCare collaborated with Friends of Cancer Research and International Quality Network for Pathology in the development and evaluation of a range of gDNA and FFPE-based TMB reference materials across different targeted NGS panels, sequencing platforms, and bioinformatics analysis pipelines.

FDA clears Simplexa VZV Swab Direct

February 2020—DiaSorin Molecular has received FDA clearance for its Simplexa VZV Swab Direct assay. The CLIA moderate-complexity assay is designed for use on the Liaison MDX instrument to detect varicella-zoster virus DNA from cutaneous and mucocutaneous swab specimens. The assay complements the company’s Simplexa VZV Direct kit, which is for use with cerebrospinal fluid samples.

FDA approves first vaccine for Ebola virus

February 2020—The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the approval of Ervebo (Merck), the first FDA-approved vaccine for the prevention of Ebola virus disease, caused by Zaire ebolavirus, in people 18 years of age and older. Ervebo is administered as a single-dose injection and is a live, attenuated vaccine that has been genetically engineered to contain a protein from the Zaire ebolavirus.

Applied BioCode panel gets FDA clearance

February 2020—Applied BioCode has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its BioCode Respiratory Pathogen Panel for use on the company’s BioCode MDx-3000 system. The panel tests nasopharyngeal swabs for common viruses and bacteria, including influenza A and subtypes H1, H1N1 2009pdm, and H3; influenza B; respiratory syncytial virus A/B; parainfluenza virus types 1–4; human metapneumovirus A/B; adenovirus; rhinovirus/enterovirus; coronavirus (229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1); Mycoplasma pneumoniae; Chlamydia pneumoniae; and Bordetella pertussis.

Eppendorf launches 25-mL conical tubes

February 2020—Eppendorf has launched 25-mL conical tubes. It is the same diameter as a conventional 50-mL conical tube and comes with either the SnapTec snap cap or screw cap, both of which have high centrifugation stability. The SnapTec cap allows for single-handed opening and closing of the cap. The wide opening of the tube, combined with the lower height, is designed to offer easy sample access.

Sample storage, shipping system

February 2020—DriBank Labs announced the availability of its DriBank system for preserving, storing, and shipping laboratory samples. The system preserves small (≤ 3 g or 50 µL) laboratory biological samples at room temperature (20˚C) for up to six months using desiccants contained inside a replaceable and rechargeable cartridge, eliminating the need for chemical fixatives or refrigerants. It accepts samples in a variety of media including microscope slides, microcentrifuge tubes, cell culture dishes, swabs, and others.

Genomenon partners with Sophia

February 2020—Genomenon announced a partnership with Sophia Genetics that includes incorporating Genomenon’s Mastermind genomic search engine into the Sophia platform and the Alamut suite.
